Repo fuchs wheels

I want to put a set of 9" fuchs on the back of my 79 SC. I would like to get a set of Rota Fox wheels or a set from **********. I have real 7 & 8's now, but it would not be a problem to use a set of cast or bolted wheels. Any suggestions

I have replicas and they are fine for the street. For heavy track use I would go with a different wheel.

A problem may be that you will be able to tell the slight difference between the repros and the front Fuchs, if that matters.

I have the Rota's and have been great. This was my first time with them in a racing situation. Was great having more rubber on the road. Race rubber of this size would be even more fun.

I've used the 16 x 9 inch repros on my 89 without any issues ... wheels were easy to balance,just like the original Fuchs !

Cheers !
