Accumoto/Jongbloed Modular Fuchs, anyone buy them yet?

What do you think?

[Elombard]

Love the adds, If that $$ was in the budget I would try a set. Look very nice and I am sure they are well made and light.

Where can I find info?

[Elombard]

They advertise in Excellence

[Hellafunctional]

First time I've seen them and they look promising. I have been looking to put deep dish wheels on my narrow body hotrod and, with the appropriate offsets, these just might do the trick.

I'm waiting for my set to arrive. The set they sent me for size testing were REALLY light and well made.

They may be light and wellmade but they sure look like every other set of average fake Fuchs.

They are very light, and VERY well made. And they look like Fuchs. I'm not sure what your point is here.

I contacted Accumoto for a quote a few weeks ago and informed them of this thread.

They quoted a set of "17" wheels in any width or offset with a solid center color and polished lip as $3900 plus shipping". No comment on weight.

Unfortunately the price was too high for me considering the AUD exchange rate and international shipping, the delivered price would be over $6k.

I'm surprised they don't offer a 'Carrera' and 'Turbo' standard fitment with black centre as the cost price would surely come down due to the amortised setup costs for both machining and painting.
Accumoto would likely get more wheels out there if they could price point between Euromeisters/Rota's and Zuffenhaus fuchs, somewhere around the $3k price point.

I've just had mine Type III anodized, and dipped the centers for an RSR look. Have a peek if you like:

Not sure I'd recommend Type 3 (hard) anodizing. The hard surface can crack and these cracks will propagate more readily into the aluminum below. Paint doesn't have this problem and Type 2 anodizing is thinner and a little more flexible.
