I suspect they may be repos if they don't fit.

I bought a beautiful set from a VW specialist and they where a little too tight. When I called him he sold me a second set that was too small and hits the front bearing cap.
Email sent to Micky914 as there site says they are not in stock. Bob Burton (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

Actually I did a run of them last week, and have 20 sets in stock. Sometimes I forget to update the inventory. These are good to go. I have actually been making improvements on the program that the are now identical to the OEM profile.
If you ever see something is out of stock, just drop me a PM or email, I can tell you for sure. The site will allow back orders, but they may not actually be out. -Mark |

QUOTE(Mikey914 @ Aug 27 2013, 09:21 PM) I suspect they may be repos if they don't fit. Yup. I bought a set from Brad at 914LTD and yes they are about 1/8" too small. Seems the knockoff (Fachs) holes are around 2 5/8"and these are 2 1/4" ??...I can get an exact measurement. There are really no decent caps available for the Fachs. Mark, it would be ideal if you could stamp these for the Fachs too? I anticipate you would sell a lot. Not all of us can find and afford real Fuchs. Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |

On the back of the wheel itself there is a Porsche part number. I don't think the re-pops have anything resembling a part number on the back.... Checked my wheels today and there is no part number on the back, only the size of the rim. So I guess I am going to have to either rig up some way to get them to stay. Does anyone have suggestions or experience from doing this for their wheels caps? |

I'm sure you can find some kind if aftermarket to use, what did the knock offs come with? I bet you can find some.
Ill check I did make a few sets of various sizes, but I think I'm out of these. Mark |
