That is definitely an aftermarket cap. When getting a replacement set there
are two things you must check.

Be sure they are deep enough to clear the front bearing caps, especially
drivers, (speedo cable) side.
The outside diameter is not such that the tire sidewall will be cut from the
hub cap rubbing it. This is especially a problem with 215 with tires.
