Just got my wheels back from Al Reed and I am very happy with the results back to original anodizing & black paint. I have always used Harvey in the past but his lead time (8 to 10 months) was too long for me to wait. Al was 6 weeks! These are 5.5" x 14" and are going on my '70 914-6.

Those look amazing. Al does great work & is a great guy. I've talked with him at an event or 2. I have yet to send him wheels but will in the future when I need a set done beyond what I can do.

Those are some sexy wheels................Stand beside tire installer with Sig Sauer in hand

Those rims are beautiful, am considering a set of these, anyone have experience with them?

Those came out beautiful. That is a quick turn-a-round time too. I dropped mine at Harvey's but then again my car is a ways off before we worry about putting wheels on it.

Can't beat Al for quality, speed and price !

This has probably been posted here before, but this guy has an interesting approach to refinishing/repainting Fuchs wheels:

Now I had to match the center caps to the newly refinished wheels. So I used Dupli-Color engine enamel paint and the color was called "Cast Coat Aluminum". I then finished them off with some satin clear, take a look:

Looks Excellent!!

Getting ready for French Lick Parade? Great looking wheels!

Ok, got my Al Reed wheels mounted 5.5 x 14's and I went with the Goodyear 195/70/14 from tire rack, very happy. Had my 2.7 engine pulled and some work done at Perfect Power locally. Had the engine and trans cleaned and degreased, they replaced most of the seals, gaskets and oil lines, so fixed all of the leaks. Rear flares are going back to stock in early spring along with some paint work. Just took it out for a nice drive today here in Chicago, might be it for awhile snow is coming this weekend! ****I do have the original matching 2.0 engine sitting in my garage**

Mike those look great!!! I have the same 14" fuchs, all 5 matching in fact. Might send the to Al too, . Where did you get your center caps? I need a set of those but was not sure of what the exact size was.

As long as your 14" fuch's are pre '73 they take the center caps with the 3 prongs on back I got my on Ebay one at a time then painted them.
