Jongbloed wheels

Hi Guy's

Not sure if this is the right forum, I was considering 17" Jongbloed rim halfs with Fuchs centers they are offered at Rothsport.

Anybody have experience with these wheels? are wheel spacers required on a factory 1986 930 what sort of Quality etc.

Thanks in advance
Rod

If you search the tech section, you will find a lot of debate about these Fuchs-type wheels.

In random order: Lindsey's, true design wheels (TDW), Zuffenhaus. Just to mention a few.

I think you can have them made pretty much to your desire, if you do your homework.

I am considering a pair of 17*9/11 in the future.

Good luck

I can't speak to the spacer question, but I do have experience with Jongbloed wheels. I have 17x10's on the front and 17x12's on the rear of my Butler Cobra.

No issues to date. The centers are Halibrand and are 6-pin knockoffs. The wheels elicit loads of good comments.

Good Luck
Russ

Jeff Gamroth has an excellent reputation. If he's selling something, I'd have a hard time believing you wouldn't be pleased with the quality.
