I tried a set of these a few years back but liked the 16" Fuchs better on my car. I did have the rsr finish on my last set. I think that was why I liked the 16" better. I love the black paddles with polished lips. When I put these on my car I loved it. Only difference compared to last time. It made a big difference for me. Not that there is anything wrong with the RSR look. Just didn't like it on my car.

What do you think? I'll get a better side picture later
1st is 16x8" fuchs
2ND 2 are the new 17x9" rears. 17x7.5" fronts

4th is the 17" same Rota's but RSR finish

Last question is black center caps or polished? Actually same thing going for the lugs. Polished or black?

I like all black. Lugs and center cap. And you told me 16's were the perfect size for a 914!?!

Well I do admit they were my favorite. Not sure I've changed my tune on that yet. I do really like the 17's I got now though

Polished lugs look good to me smilie_pokal.gif

Just realizing I messed up on the poll. You can only choose one of the 4. Guess I needed to separate the cap from the lugs sad.gif . Don't see a way to edit the poll. ADMIN?

I like the black caps and polished lugs on your car.

2nd and 3rd pics - black center caps and lugs. I have never like the contrasting lug look on these wheels on any car.

I like the black ones, but at the end of the day. Who are you really appeasing , the forum or yourself?

I think that the Fuchs are one of the most beautiful wheels ever produced for a car. I don't mind the centers in black, but I think that the petals in silver or RSR finish really highlight their look. With the silver lettering and stripe on your car, I think that it would look better with silver spokes and center cap. Black lugs.

Black. In RSR finish, it accentuates the "too big" look of the 17s.

IMHO.

P.S. I'm still ill from the track run in Medford…. barf.gif

THAT WAS FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Personally I like the RSR, no caps and black lugs.
But it's really about what you like. shades.gif

Any way you like it, they are all cool. first.gif

I didn't like the RSR look on my car. My favorite look for Fuchs is black centers with polished lips. Guess I'm going to have to order some black lugs. While I am sure I have a few floating around. I guess I could be smart & just do one side polished lugs/caps & one side black lugs/caps. Then see which side I like better idea.gif

chrome lugs black caps = beautiful but get both styles and have options
