I am looking for a set (4-5) Mahle wheels for my '73 914 2.0. Haven't received the car yet, but it has Fuchs wheels currently. Anyone sitting on a set that they would like to sell? Must be in very good to excellent condition. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Thank you

Fuchs are much better wheels. Forged vs cast. Almost half of the Mahle wheels Ive seen are bent.

Not only forged but also light, I weighed my 6 x 16 Fuchs yesterday on two different scales and 14lb 12 oz that is a really light 16" wheel.

Yea, the 2.0 Fuchs are about 12 1/2. Mahle gasburner magnesium wheels are a little over 10 but expensive and easily damaged.
