As the black car has Rivieras and I will be changing to 2.0 Fuchs
the question is ; Will the same lugs I am using with the Rivieras work with the Fuchs or do I need to buy lugs specific to the Fuchs? I will need center caps as well . Is there a source for nos center caps or an aftermarket supplier? Thx JT |

EBAY WARNING!!!
make sure the base cone under teh bolt head has the correct size and shape required to mate with your german fuchs. I saw some EBAY bolts that the cone was too small to fully engage the wheel and the radius did not match teh inner surface in teh wheel's bolt socket if your fuchs are german please remember that they dont make em like they used to. they deserve good bolts. I sold my imitation fuchs for 50 bucks the nice ones you want to use are stamped VW right on the head and teh bolt crown is a smooth dome |

I think I used the word paint to many times.....sorry I have that problem too because I am changing wheels nearly 3 times a month. I have had good luck with keeping the paint thin so it doesn't chip. Probably would be better if I had one of them Sexy "soft sockets" I suppose they would look good with anodized heads. They also look good wire wheeled and clear coated. Easier to keep up. |
