I won't have them until tomorrow night, but they are *very* light, have a 911 part number and "6x15" and "7x15" with maybe a "j" in there as well.
They are the real ones, no doubt. KT

These wheels are part of a cool deal for another 914 for me.
I was just hoping to get some sort of an idea. I don't know what I'm going to do with them yet. KT

oooh those 7x15s are getting rare.
Fuchs had destroyed the 15 inch dyes, and sadly none are made anymore. |

I'll buy them and give you market $$$$.
I also have an extensive inventory of 911's, Fuchs and interior. FYI - Porsche owns the machinery to produce 911 Alloys. Fuchs is the forging company that Porsche sublet the wheel production too. There is still inventory on 15" 911 New alloys - How do I know? Porsche North America shows them in stock. Please feel free to call anytime: 408-210-0113 Thank you, Jason |

Jason, you are the acknowledged master of all things Fuchs. I wouldn't want to correct you - but wouldn't Fuchs own the machinery, and Porsche own the rights? In other words, Porsche has the exclusive right to buy the Fuchs wheels (when they put together a run of wheels).....

Porsche owns the rights and machinery.
Fuchs Forging Co. can not produce any Porsche 911 Alloy without consent from Porsche. Thank you, Jason |

I sold a set of the 15X7's for 750 bucks. That was a couple years ago so I am going to take a stab at it and say depending on condition somewher in the neighborhood of 1K - 1200...
the 15X7's are very popular in the 914 vintage race crowd since a lot of guys with 916 flares run them all the way around... |

those wheels look odly porous, like they're cast instead of forged.
