I never thought or heard that they were trying to be like real Porsche wheels. I had them for 7 years in California. I think it was the krauts last ditch attempt at displaying the Iron Cross.

Hmmm... anyone doing reverse black? Black petals with natural recessed area, polished rim perhaps?

I'm sure it's been done before, but does anyone have any pictures of 4 lug Fuchs with a RSR finish? Maybe Photoshop?

When I see 911 Fuchs polished or even worse chromed, I want to puke.
But I must admit those polished 914 Fuchs look pretty sweet.

I first refinished my wheels with the black insert, it was a fun project and it took me the whole day, stripping, sanding, polishing, painting, etc. I was very happy with the result. Then about 6 months later, i noticed the paint was slightly chipping off.

and it made my wheels look like total @#$$%!

So Then I refinshed them again, and have never had a problem since

I like them color matched, but polished is starting to grow on me too.

I'm a bit of a convert now. I love the original finish, but the fully polished.....

Combine choice 3 and 4 and you're onto something:
