9"x16" Fuchs

Anybody in the Uk know of a pair of 930 rear fuchs for sale? I've tried the usual suspects - Porsch Apart, Jasmine, Camtune, Douglass Valley etc but with no joy! Any Turbo owners out there thinking of getting new wheels??????

Well now I have seen those 17" rims I may be tempted to sell my 8+9x16s. I will check with them for freight costs. It will certainly make tyre choice a lot easier!

Thanks guys.
The prices for the bigger Fuchs just seems to be crazy! I saw a set (7" & 9") a while back for £500 but decided not to go for them because I thought it seemed excessive for 2nd hand wheels.
I found a UK Porsche parts supplier selling split rim HRE Fuch replicas but they are £700 per wheel.
Here's their site.
My search continues for a bargain!

Oh, and by the way, I'm sure Dutchie is wrong. 9" Fuch prices are set to drop dramatically so I would take your off your hands for £150 Nick!

$1000 It seems that this is the price you have to pay! I find it a bit hard to justify paying that at the moment.

I've never been a fan of the style of the RUF wheels, I prefer BBS in the aftermarket

I quite like those RUF wheels, Dutchie. They would look good with painted spokes.
