What the Fuchs?
Attempting to gain a basic understanding of the various Fuchs sizes and price range for the earlies; as originally equipped that is.
Let me take a stab: sizes range from 14X4.5 to 15X6? Esses were larger? Comfort packages were smaller? (14" instead of 15" on LWB) And what is a deep six? Especially if it's only 5.5 wide? An early S wheel? Prices one may expect for a set of average to above average wheels?: 14 $250-$500 15 $800-$1200 Deep 6s - $$$$ I've heard that 16X7 is the largest one would want to go while avoiding fender edge modification. Am I totally off base here? |

I am not aware of 4.5x14 Fuchs
I have seen: 5.5 x 14, 4.5 x 15, 6 x 15 Oh, don't forget the famous "R" 7x15 fuchs, used to fit in the rear of a narrowbody, or early car without flares. While I can spot a "deep" six, I somehow can't describe it in a manner that makes sense. Sorry.

67 S Fuchs
expect these to be much higher than deeps
more like 500-700 each wheel a matched set will command premium over mismatched different year stamping ![]() |
