Early Fuchs Wheel Value?

[Jim Chambers]

Just bought a '67 912 with 4.5" x 15" Fuchs alloys. I think those were the first ones and standard on the '67 S. Likely only of interest to an early S restorer since 4.5 is pretty narrow for modern tires. Anyone have a guess at their value?

Actually, they are also prized by the custom VW bug crowd, who have driven up values beyond all sense. They typically sell for $400/ea. and up, depending on condition. There is a set for sale in England right now for 300 British pounds/ea.
