So I am ready to pull the trigger for a set of fuchs. When I remembered, I have a 1975 which is hubcentric. How do I know if the Fuchs are Hubcentric? Is a part number or something?
You could also get some -00 part no. Fuchs & have them machined, but they were few & an oddball mfg error which caused the BO recall to inspect all wheels on 7/72 - 12/72 914s (similar one for the Pedrini & Mahle 4-lug wheels too, & those can also be machined if wrong).

The 914 fuchs are all hubcentric. they became available on the 1973 year, which was the first year for hubcentric front rotors.

I had a set of non hubcentric Fuchs 4 bolt wheels.

Hi James, if you end up buying the set from me on Saturday, they came off a 75, so no worries about them fitting.

Chris is correct about NOT all Fuchs are hub centric. There was a Mid-72 to early 73 hub that was not hub centric, so some Early Fuchs were not centric. There was a dealer info update on this.
