Fuch'n ID
Hopefully this is the right forum to ask this question.
Can anyone identify this rim? I know, horrible picture.  \\Best Regards, Daryl |

Looks like a FUCHS rim. Best way to tell is remove the wheel and clean the backside. Then look for a 911.xxx.xxx part number AND the Fuchs logo. Also stamped on the backside should be the rim size... ie 5.5x15 or 4.5 x 15
if the part number, logo and potentially the year of production are not visible, you may have a "fake" fuch.

From the tiny blurry photo, it appears to be a 4.5 x 15 Fuchs alloy because of:
a. shallow lip depth (too shallow for 5.5 x 15) b. what appears to be a heart cut-out. 14" Fuchs do not have "hearts." If it's an early 4.5 x 15, then there will be no metal "part number" stamp. There will be 3 different inkstamps on the back of 3 separate spokes. The inkstamped "part number" may or may not still be visible. If it's a late 4.5 x 15, then there will be a "part number" embossed (raised) on the back of one of the alloy spokes/paddles. In either case, the part number will be 901.361.012.01 |
