I like em. Certainly much better than those ugly Fuchs 4 bolts that are on 75% of 914s. Although I would have included a link in the first post.

I like'em. It lightens up the look of the fuchs and might provide a small brake cooling & weight benefit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

new/more wheels are always good.
if they are cheaper than the wider fuchs reps that are out there thats a plus for those on a budget.
they dont look that bad.

the Magnus walker x fifteen52 writing is annoying
the logo is kind of annoying

its all a little too L.A. haha

Yes L.A. does things a little different with our car tuning creativity , but Magnus is all about marketing the buck. These wheels totally do not float my boat...I don't think that these would ever appeal to me.
I do like when Magnus uses L.A.'s Mission St. bridge for some of his Videos.
In the 50's the flat dry concrete river bed under this bridge was home to the midnight street racing scene.

Before my time ! In the late '60s we wore these colors to the Crenshaw+Stocker Plaza,
late night. Usually over 500 cars with names like Rat Candy, NovaCane, but Disney's Greased Lightning would have been welcome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

The black ones aren't bad. The silver and gold ones look like cheap Fuchs knock-offs.

Magnus has some pretty awesome cars, though. Probably much more what Porsche intended rather than CWs.

This wheel doesn't do it for me, just can't beat the orig !

Might be better suited for a 996.
