I don't know. I'm so used to the genuine 16" Fuchs look that everything else just looks wrong. Even 17's look wrong.

Hmmm, I have to be honest.
I like it but.... no aftermarket Fuchs ever seems to get the edges of the petals right (read: completely to my liking.) But it sure looks like a quality wheel. Got more pics? (any test done regarding strength and stuff?? It's forged so that can't be bad, right?)

The forging is DOT/SFI tested and made it through testing flawlessly

Wow. There is virtually no sidewall. The ride must suck this side `till Tuesday.
It is beautifully done though! |

Interesting, but I'd to see the entire car before I can tell if I like it.

Does anyone make forged Fuchs replacements in 16" size? 18" is too much in my opinion, but if there are guys riding around with goofy looking 22" on their impalas then there will be someone that likes 18s on their 911.

IIRC there's a 17" with the (vintage narrow lip) and this new 18" with the (new 16"-style wider lip.

Iozzio had this link posted earlier.
Why he removed it IDK. Pics of the beetle with 18's 18" forged Fuchs-style replicas album | Iozzio | Fotki.com, photo and video sharing made easy. I can't help but wonder how it will look on a 911.

Agreed 18" is too much. That red SC/Carrera looks really off. Funny you mention the impala w/22's. Usually those are jacked to the sky to fit the dubs on there. In this case the 911 is slammed down to w/in a ch of the ground and the wheel proportions are all wacked out. Looks like a photoshop mistake IMO. That car must ride like poo and handle equally crappay.
