Knock Off Fuchs

Gents

OEM Fuchs are getting mighty expensive. Has anyone out there tried the Knock Off Italian Fuchs, cast not forged, that Tweeks sells? For everyday driving are they ok?

I'm helping a friend decide if he should sell his first kid for a set of 7 and 8 16's that have been gone over by Wheel Enhancement. Anyone know a better route? Better yet, anyone here have some for sale.

Hello Jack,
Welcome to the board.
I think there are several sets for sale in the 911 Used Parts Classifieds on this forum. Keep looking.

There's a couple of guys on the board that sale restored Fuchs. Just use the search button at the top right. Type in Fuchs, and select the category "Porsche 911 Used Parts Forsale". You see all the current ones available.

Ebay is another good source.

Hi Rick, I purchased these 3 days ago from a fellow Pelicanite. I don't have them in my possession yet.
