BRAID 17" Fuchs Replica Wheels. Input Requested.

We are looking into adding 17" versions to our popular range of high quality, European made, semi-forged, Fuchs Replica wheels. BRAID USA




Just wondering what widths, offsets and finishes people might want.

Standard 911 (SC/Carrera body) offsets in 7.5" and 8.5" widths would be great.

This, and/or 8" and 9" widths.

If I could choose both the width and between a few finishes, that would be great, too. Standard polished lip with black center, completely unfinished (at a possible lower price) or "RSR frosted" (like the first wheel in your photo series) look.

Its a small market but 9s and 10s or 11s that fit an SC or carrera converted to turbo flares would be nice. - no spacers

Also, no spacers for a real turbo in the same sizes would be nice.

7,8,9,10, and 11" widths with the same offsets that are offered for the Braid BZ 15" wheels (including the +15 offset for the 9" wheel).

I think the addition of 17" Fuchs replica wheels would be a fabulous addition to the Braid lineup. The current 15" and 16" sizes look great but tire selection leaves a lot to be desired.

I'd be interested in 7's and 8's in factory offsets. Could do 7.5 and 8.5 as well. RSR finish would be OK, but I'd really love to see the same pattern in clear anodized, not frosted, a la the classic deep sixes.

I can't fit 8's in the front of my standard 911. I would say 7" and 9's standard offsets. I have 7's and 9's on it now.

9" and 11", and I would be a buyer right now, in the classic finish.


Thanks!

7,9, and 11's. That covers SC/Carrera and turbos. Offer any colour you want as long as its black... Meaning basic in regard to style etc I think what has hurt other offerings is trying to cater to everyone in regards to finish colour offset etc.
