Thumbs up New 17" Forged Fuchs

Just wanted to let everyone know that there are now true forged center 17" Porsche Fuchs style wheels available (17x7 17x8 17x10) and 18" are on the way!!!! These are amazing wheels and I was lucky enough to see them getting made as my friend Paul is producing them.





Have a look,link to his site...

I like these a lot, good on you guys for getting them made. Not sure about the market for early 911, but seems a great product.

There are a lot of people here who would pay for proper 15x7 911r rims. Hint .

already read it, but did he post the forging blanks? Maybe I should take another look.

I can get you guys some pics of the forging blanks. The prototype wheels pictured here were cut from solid plate material. I had a forging die built and the production wheels are cut from a smaller forging. I will contact the company building them for me, the forgings are getting used up pretty fast for customer wheels.
