Can anyone tell me anything about these BTTF wheels?

So the moment I first saw this black 87 Deluxe I've been working on I was impressed by how nice the aftermarket wheels paired with the lines of the truck. In the name of originality I was dead set on polishing up a set of the standard alloys for her. But a minute ago I was in the garage and something dawned on me...

These wheels aren't similar to the ones on Marty's SR5 4x4, these are the wheels from Marty's pickup. At minimum very convincing reproductions.

Can anyone tell me anything about these wheels? Any chance they were a dealer add on back in the day? Is it more likely they're a reproduction and either PO or PO's grandfather was just a big BTTF fan?

Separately, I think the black wheels not only look sharper but will clean up MUCH nicer than the factory ones I have. Should I keep these wheels on when it comes time for auction or go with factory?

As the owner of many 80's Toyota 4WDs and friends with them as well, I don't recall ever seeing rims like that come on one.
 
Yeah, I've been hearing elsewhere definitely aftermarket but period correct. PO told me his grandfather purchased them when he purchased the truck to have an extra set. I'm leaning towards leaving them on but offering the truck with the factory alloys as well.
