Are these real Fuchs???
Hey everybody,
About 6 months ago I purchase what was advertised as " (4) 7" x 15" Fuchs Replica wheels" to put on the 1970 911S while the Deep Sixes were being polished, anodized and painted by Al Reed. These 7 x 15's were not in the best of shape and needed to be redone so I figured after I bought them I would have them refinished and have the rims and petals polished with the satin black painted inserts. Quite honestly, I prefer this look over the anodized rims and petals. In addition, these wheels would accomodate 215/15 tires. These 7 x 15's would be my daily drivers which would be a nice change from the anodized look but the original Deep sixes would be there with the turn of a soft socket whenever I wanted it. Plus, these reborn deep sixes with the hearts are getting tougher and tougher to find so I want to keep them in decent shape for as long as I can. Well, I just took all the grease and crud off the inside of the 7 x 15's and I am no expert but there are Porsche stamps on the inside of the wheel. Here are the markings: 911.361.020.11 (the "11" is in a square box)THIS IS MY QUESTION There are some letters and numbers underneath that part number. 7 J X 15 (there is also that little foxes head in a triangle) Date stamp 1176 I am familiar with that Porsche Wheel Weights chart and there are other 911.361.020 numbers listed but nothing with the .11 following the 911.361.020. I googled that part number and came up with one result that had to be translated from Japanese. The only reference was:"memo: [hutsusu] 7J*15 911.361.020.11 6.3kg" Anybody know if these are real Fuchs or what? I don't think a knockoff Fuchs manufacturer would have those stampings inside the wheels or would they?? Thanks in advance for your help! Last edited by 70S Targa Guy; 06-30-2007 at 03:53 AM.. |

Thanks Bill. Do you have a link to a site that has an updated and comprehensive list of Porsche wheel part numbers, wheel size, weights, etc.? Here is what I have been using: http://members.rennlist.com/911pcars/WheelWts.html
Thanks again. |
