Hi,
Can someone help me describe this fuchs wheels I have which is 2 different type. I have 3 of the 1st picture and 1 of the 2nd picture. 1st picture shows No outer circle line at the center wheel (center cap hole). 2nd picture has outer circle line. And this are the usual fuchs wheels I've seen on this site. And this requires longer lug bolt (at least more than 1" on the thread length). Thank you!   |

Your first image could be a replica wheel if it takes short stock lug bolts.
The second image is a real Fuchs. On the backside of the wheel, you will find a 914 part number and the Fox logo if it is a real Fuchs. They won't be there if they are replicas. |

Thanks for responding! yes the 1st picture requires shorter lug bolt (like 1" thread length). It has AEW lettering at the back. The 2nd picture has 914.... number at the back. Maybe I should find 1 more wheel same as the 1st picture before polishing them. Anyone here has one or maybe trade. God Bless! |

You’d better measure the back spacing. The American Eagle Wheels will most likely be a Beetle offset. The 1 Fuch that you’ve got is the right offset wheel.
