cheap Fuchs replicas
Has anyone tried these cheap Fuchs replicas on a 356 C, yet? I am refering to the Empi and Flat 4 wheels as seen on VW suppliers sites. I am curious about trying a set, but fear that these non forged wheels may be thicker than the genuine wheels on my 911. I measure 8mm from the hub surface to the bottom of the lug nut well on the real wheels. I'm not interested enough in the replicas if they need longer wheel studs to safely bolt on. Just curious if anyone has been down this road yet. Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris
you have to change the studs on early 911/912 when going from steel wheels it isn't a big deal

Think twice when using a fake FUCH. This picture is real.
