This is the new Magnus Walker wheel launched yesterday. They are Fuchs style built by Fifteen52. Their website does not have pricing for these but other wheels from the company start at $999 each. I don't think I will be buying these any time soon but the look cool.

Not a big fan of Magnus. Though I'll admit I'm jealous I didn't think of drilling holes in things and painting them weird schemes first. I'd make a lot more than I do currently.

Wonder if they're strong enough to stand up to those Hoosiers.

I'd like them better in silver. I will say I'd run them if I was tripping over money.

Seems like the opinions expressed in this other thread could have been expressed here in this thread.

It's all a matter of personal taste. I would run these wheels on my 914. I'm just a CSOB and will never buy a set.

a different spin on the classic/ perfect Porsche wheel. hard to one up it but looks OK in black and maybe better in RSR finish.

Remember the Dating Game? similar to what they had on the set (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif)
