From the factory your model of bike was fitted with Weinmann rims, alloy, and they should be stamp as such.
What is unusual is for Weinmann rims to be fitted with a bolt axle on the rear, all that I have seen are QR. The specs indicated both wheels were QR, front QR, rear bolted. If alloy will save you some money and worry about the proper fit.
