Fuchs replicas generally will NOT have date and sizing stamping, right?
Go ahead and snuff out any lingering irrational hope that I end up with a spare set of original rims....
Thanks!

Consider yourself snuffed
![]() Tom, I have no recollection of ever seeing replica Fuchs with date stamps. That said I haven't seen every model of replica but I couldn't see a reason for stamping unless the manufacturer did so for their production records and even then, I don't think it would be the same as the original stamp.

I would say that almost all of the replicas will have the date stamp and size marked. 100% sure on size being marked.
It's generally a manufacturer norm to do this for there records and potential warranty etc.
