Saw these thought someone would be interested. Probably need a spacer and fender mods.
I know nothing about them.

I think six got 'em right - look like 4-bolt mahles. 8" wide - wicked offset on those puppies. Would be about right for a 964 or 993. Wonder if any late model 911 owner would do a 4 bolt conversion... Maybe not.

No raised "paddle" areas like the Fuchs have.

Definitely Fuchs, but you really have to twist your eyes to see the paddles. It is the high polish that makes it hard to discern. Look at the right upper rim, and you can see the bolt holes are in a recess.

The correct pronunciation is fooks as you would say books...
He likes to read books
He likes to polish fooks
Just replace the b in books with an f- sound
Fuchs stands for fox (as in the an the four-legged animal that lives in the wilderness).
If you look on the back of your Fuchs wheels, you may see a smal Fox picture marking near some of the offset or part number markings...

What the hell will those wheels fit?
They'll rub the INSIDE at the rear of a 914.
They wouldn't even work on my car.

They'd work on my yellow tub, tho. Too bad I've already got some 16x9's for it.

Pronunciation.....
Fook, like in look....
So telling A-ron to Fuch off would be confusing to his little brain...
