Talking Fuchs are back!

Uhh Look at what porsche brought back! 19-inch Sport Classic wheels which mimic the legendary Fuchs rims. They feature a five-spoke design with the "rim star painted black, the wheel hump in gloss-lathed finish, and the Porsche logo in color." Priced at €5,569 ($7,248), production will be limited to 250 units. God i just fell in love!

Too bad for me that they only fit wide bodies (all wheel drive 997s)! But if they are only producing 250 sets as SigFan229 is saying, then it doesn't sound like it'll be an easy wheel to simply go to the dealership and order!

Fuchs is supposedly working on a forged version that will fit our cars.

I would love those wheels!!! The new forged version should be lighter . . . but also pricier.

Depends on the offsets. I am running wide body LM's on my C2S and they fit perfectly (better than narrow offsets IMHO).

I hope they are priced less. the porsche OEM pricing seems extremely high for a cast wheel.

$5,495 with Pilot Sports already installed? That doesn't seem too bad...

It says it only fits widebodies... is that true?

Don't mean to thread jack but Wheelstudio has the Homage to Fuchs... to fit narrow and widebodys.

Here is a link to our for sale thread.

Did I mention they are almost 80% cheaper
