Genuine Fuchs?
Hi folks. Just wondering if there is a way to tell if my Fuchs wheels are genuine?

I'd say yes- except that there are no pictures or descriptions to base that opinion on.

weigh em. Fakes are heavy. Part number is also stamped differently iirc.

I hate to tell you this Glenn, but those are obviously fakes.
In all seriousness, look at the backside, you should have the "fox" logo and the porsche part number cast into the wheel. The trained eye will also be able to tell fakes from the front side based on spoke and lip profile etc. Cheers

Ok. I will post pics, and look at the back. I an currently out of town, and the wheels are mounted on the car... So it would have to be the visual cues. E.g. I can't weigh them :-)
