I have a set of Euromiester 17s fake Fuchs on my 911. It is impossible to find good high performance tires for the 15 inch factory Fuchs that work in rain, and highway driving and yet have great performance at a track day or autocross. So I went to the 17s.

Over the years, I collected the Porsche OEM square edge wheel weights. A friend worked at a wheel repair place, ans he collected more as they came through. So I have a collection to bring the place that mounts and balance my wheels. They try hard to use weights only on the inside, and will take the time to rotate the tire on the rim to need no weights if possible. Then they give me back the unused weights.




I like the way they look. I had a wheel repair shop painted the centers white like the original wheels. They did some minor weight balance adjustments on the wheels when they had them.
