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!

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.

Actually, they are not correct for the 73s. Those would be a "10" not "11" in the part number which designates the smaller diameter hub opening for the three prong caps. The "11" uses the ring style cap. All other aspects of the wheel are the same though. I don't know the latest date for a "10" wheel.

911.361.020.10 is a 6x15 Fuch
