Help Identifying Fuchs
I'd like not to have to pull the wheels off of the car...PO told me that they were sold to him as 911 wheels but that he figured that they were actually 944 Fuchs. They are presently mounted on a 77 911.
UPDATED WITH CAST #s BELOW Tires in front are 205/55/16 and backs are 225/50/16. They'll be for sale once I can figure it out what exactly they are...an opinion on value would be appreciated if we can figure out what they are without pulling...one front wheel looks to be damaged but looks fixable. First 2 pics are rears... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by georgeinhere; 06-12-2011 at 09:50 AM.. |

Pulling a wheel isn't hard, grow a pair, dude......serial #s are on the inside petals.....but the rears do look like 8 inchs 944 wheels.

Looking at the numbers on the back of the petal is the only way to confirm.
This may help... 911 Wheel Weights

According to the rennlist reference guide (thank you), wheels look correct "77 to 84" 911 wheels, please correct me if I am wrong.

Those are 6 and 7x16 wheels, very common on the '78-87 or so 911's. (Around '88 or '89, 8's were fitted in the rear and 6's continued to be used in the front.)
'77's had no flares in the rear, so these would not have come from the factory on a regular 911 in '77. They can fit on a '72, but 225's and a 7" wheel on the rear is a challenge. You'd need aggressive negative camber for them to fit, or go to a 205 tire. The fronts would fit fine on a '72. As to value, $125 to $150 each is my guess. Even the bent one has some value-that's a 16x6 and can be cut up to be used as a center for 17" wheels by Lindsey.
