They kinda look like they might possibly be real, but with the incorrect lug bolts (no conical seat).
But he's on crack obviously. |

I sent the seller of those 'rare' 2.0 fuchs an email thru ebay.
Told him that his ad is Dishonest, and that he should consider changing it. That the 2.0 fuchs are Not RARE. |

They are shiny when you make any attempt to clean them.
Another method: a magnet wont 'cling' to a SSI heat exchanger like it will a stock one made from steel. B |

the wheels have cheesy centercaps...
conical dishes for use w/ shorter lugs, and they have the wrong offse.... i had a side by side set and you could tell oh, and one is forged and the cheapo is cast (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I think the best way to tell is the REAL ones have the original part number stamped on the inside. My fakes (represented as real on ebay when I bought them) lack the stamped part number.
I had a funny feeling when I took them out of the box, and the front ones had 135's on them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) . . . and "Sunny San Diego?" doesn't look sunny in those pics. . . |
