Has anyone else seen the new four lug wheels that Magnus Walker has produced? They are styled like his Fuchs open petal design, but with the four lug, four petal design oh the Fuchs. Look nice, but pricy!

There was a thread on it last spring/summer sometime.
They look OK, the idea is as not near as cool as it is on the 911 version.
Way to frickin spendy for this crowd. To me there's way better looking wheel options for the money.

I wonder if he's even sold his first set?

I wonder how many have been sold so far....

I like them enough that I'm considering a set of the 5 lugs for my LS build... we'll see.

Someone here bought them can't remember who.

The 5 lug version is actually pretty cool, to me it loses something on the 4 lug.

I agree. Perhaps related to the notion that Nature abhors even numbers?

On the right car, the five lug version is sick....

I can see the 4-lug looking good on the right car as well probably need to be a narrow body tho I'm not sure four lugs look right under flares MW seems to favor fat tires and big hips tho so don't know about size availability/fitment
look better in two tone silver ala the OG -mho

The 5 lug version is sweet.... not too crazy about the 4 lug version.
Im a Big Fan of the Campagnolo wheels myself. Does anyone here
have any?

We are a fikse dealer. So 25% off (or more for an employe) vs full price for Maggie's wheels isn't going to happen.

My bud Dave is running the Pags. They are sweet.

I love those campy wheels! Those Magnus Walker 5 lug wheels are awesome too!

Posted by: tygaboy Nov 2 2016, 08:05 PM

Are the Campagnolo wheels available in anything but 15"? I'd like some more tire choices and would have to have 16", at least.

That black GT bodied 914 looks sick with those wheels. I didn't care for them at first, so either I hit my head or they have grown on me. I really like those wheels.

replica Campy's on my Orange car. I am glad to see another Teener

I ran in to Magnus on Monday at SEMA and spoke to him about being able to sell the Wheels on 914rubber. Sounds like we may be able to get these for you. They are all custom made to order at this point and take about 5 weeks to get. We may have some exciting news in the near future.
