Either very expensive Fuchs made for Porsche or a knockoff made by Ruger.

My first thought was a cheap knockoff but could very well be Fuchs which is a nice wheel.

If they are on Craigslist in TX, they are the knockoff. Mark is selling them with only 2 tires, new but mismatched.

I would remove a wheel and look for manufacturing marks/numbers.

i cant recall eve seeing the classic fuchs in a size for ours. id guess knockoff or cheap like a victor etc.

oh lookey there. i just talked with those guys last week. very helpful but helped me order incorrectly sized lugs after 3 or so calls. not phi beta kappa, but i'll take the blame.
i dont think the fuchs look works for our cars, personally. but others may. cool.. didn't know they made em.. hmm.

Personally I wasn't crazy about them either, but they have started to grow on me. Would still like some turbo twists, but my wife's blood pressure is stable these days and it's too soon to have "hey babe what do you think of these wheels" talk.
