Post Fuchs

Hey, This guy I bought my car from gave me some 5 lug 911 Fuchs. They have the Porshce Strutgart emblem on the front, but there is nothing on the back that specify's they are original Fuchs, no stamp no nothing. Are Fuchs replicated and how can you tell if the are original or not? How much are the originals and fakes worth?

Fuchs means "fox" in German. Real Fuchs have a little fox-head logo stamped into the back someplace.

They should also have a 901. or 911. part number if they are real.

Reproduction Fuchs are made, and are generally not considered to be the greatest quality. They are cast, not forged. Personally I wouldn't want repros on my car.

The value of real Fuchs depends on their size and condition. Which ones do you have?

Cheers,
