Group 4 or TRE Fuchs reps Anyone? Need feedback
 
Has anyone pulled the trigger on these Fuchs reps from Group 4? They're also sold by TRE w/a RSR finish... any thoughts or experience w/them? I've searched but haven't seen these reps come up.

I am leaning towards deep 6 and 7R for my '77 narrow body hotrod build up and was thinking Maxilite, but just noticed these.

Would love to hear from folks on these as I think the Group 4 reputation is pretty good, as is Maxilite as far as reps are concerned.

i thought they made those excellent campagnolo reps too, which had a good reputation

I am using 7R reps from TRE on my '71T narrow body. I would think you could go wider? I run a 185/205 staggered set up. Two Targa Calis under my belt w this set up and it works well for me.

Yes - I've seen those reviews - Group 4 wheels have a great reputation... and these look pretty good to my (untrained) as compared to the real Fuchs

What do you think of the quality of the finish/anodizing? Is the petal design what you'd expect for a Fuch rep? Was weight reasonable? Any pics?

With the '77 narrow body, I can run the 7R on studs/spacers and am planning to go with a 225 in back since I added the high clearance Elephant lines. The 6's in front looks spot on with the 7R and I can run a 205 up front to balance things out
