What's a fair price for a set of four, four-bolt Fuchs that are in good shape?

$400 with the proper bolts

$400 with bolts is a great deal for the buyer! My recent Ebay experience is: Bought 4 with lugs and caps for $430 plus shipping (for track tires). Decided to sell as I found some better ones with race tires installed. Sold for $480 plus shipping without caps or lugs. Sold caps for $40, kept bolts (worth at least $80). Your experience my vary as I have seen wheels go for $350. If anyone is selling wheels and bolts for $400 let me know.

I sold my 4-lug Fuchs for $400 for all 4.....no lug nuts included at that price.

That's an okay deal on the cutter cutters if that is what you are looking for.

Most people that want a 15x6 will opt for the 5-lug Fuch, those go for for about 100 to 150 per wheel in good shape.

Are the lug bolts for the four-bolt Fuchs still available new? Is there anything special about them or can similar bolts be used?

I sold 4 of my 4 lug fuchs for $500 buy-it-now. 2 crappy centers and no lugs.
I got $100 buy-it-now for the lugs.

Don't hesitate to put a seller friendly buy-it-now price on an auction if you have a reserve, it may
be the enticement necessary to get the highest prices.

I'm pretty sure they are...cost is about $16.00 (US) each...ouch

I've heard that some Audi applications work, but the head is 17mm instead of 19mm.

Getting the proper grip length as well as the correct seat style is very important.

hmmm, the Boxsters and new 996's use bolts, I wonder if they work. I've seen these in some of the mag's for longer lengths and some companies sell Ti lug bolts

I agree with the others, 400 is not a good deal for cookies.
A few years ago I got 4 fully polished ones (6x15 for my
stock fenders) for that.

Posted by: Aaron Cox Aug 3 2003, 01:25 PM

well. now i know what my 4 lug fuchs are worth. my plan is to sell my fuchs and by a ste of 5 lug fuchs. im looking for 4 16x6 polished with balck accents. i wouldnt mind 7's, but how hard is it to roll fenders to clear 7's in the back?

I sold the 7 X 16 cookies from my 928 for $350.

Posted by: mskala Aug 3 2003, 09:38 PM

Umm, the 'cookie cutter' rims were only in 6 and 7 x 15. Here is a pic
(finish was not like that, though)

Heh... Someone today at the Carlsen swap meet got five four-lug Fuchs for $160. Smokin' deal!!

Two of them were very very early ones that did not have the hub-centering recess, and had a slightly different casting. Well, one was. One had originally been that way but someone had milled out a recess that was too large in the other one... Whoops!
