Fuchs on a 965 what in the world

[Kevin Stewart]

Now that I have your attention, I have a 82 with a 965 style widebody kit. I keep looking at taking the spacers off and putting on a set of of 17x11 and 17x9 inch wheels, what do ya think, I am also considering a hardtop, Kevin

[BRPORSCHE]

Nope. You need some speedlines.

[Kevin Stewart]

I ment to add Lindsey type fuchs, Kevin

[BRPORSCHE]

I still think the 5 petal look of the lindsey's will look too dated. It's a modern car compared to the fuchs, so it needs correct era rims.

Here's what mine looked like with Fuchs

[Porsche Doc]

Here is a 90 C4 with Lindsey's fuch 17x 11 & 9.5's. They were the first set they built.

The 'backdating' sort of negates the argument.

Just the opposite of the 82 to 965; updated.

HOWEVER. That's a GREAT looking vehicle!

[Macroni]

I agree with a modern wheel not a fuch. Car is great looking with the current wheels.

[450knotOffice]

Stick with the modern wheels. They look great on that car. Maybe a set of GT3 wheels?

[Kevin Stewart]

I really want to get the spacers off, so most of the modern oe wheels are out, Kevin

[RarlyL8]

There are many manufacturers who will do custom offsets for you and have center designs other than Fuch. That is what I would do with your car. Fuchs would not look good, too retro for your updated styling.

[Kevin Stewart]

RarlyL8 I have looked around and i am not gonna spend 4k on wheels to drive on the roads in indiana, I thought about seeing if they could take a set of cup one wheels and cut the centers out and weld them like the fuchs, Kevin

[RarlyL8]

I was thinking Kenisis or CCW. $2500

[Kevin Stewart]

I think the fuchs will work great i do like the idea of cup one centers welded in a deep barrel, but i actual want wheels to TT the car, Kevin

[dzls rok]

i like the wheels you have on the car. but lindsey p3's would look good also...i think.

[Kevin Stewart]

the problem with what i have is it has three spacers in the rear, I really want to take them off before i track it, Kevin

[nyne11]

Look's OK to me!

[JMatta]

Now, if they only weren't so shiney.

i don't like the Fuchs on this car. prefer Kinesis or Fikse. or what you currently have.

+1 - the fuchs add too much bling.
