Default 16" x 7J Fuchs x2 - current market value?

Hi guys, I'm an impostor from the 944 side of the board

I'm trying to gauge the value of a set of 2 genuine Fuchs wheels from a '79 SC. They're in overall great shape, no tires, and are missing the center caps. What's the current market like? They're stamped as 911.361.020 44. I found some ads online, but nothing solid, as their value seems to be tied to the 911 market. TIA!







I'm a big fan of Fuchs, my '83 is rocking 16" x 7J square setup (is it sacrilegious to post a water cooled front engine car here?)

Someone else needs to comment, but I seem to recall an issue with back spacing. There was a fantastic article in Excellence about this in the late '80s.

That would be for 87 on 944s, they are late offset (52mm)

Look at the massive oil spot on the road under the back of your car.....it fits right in here. .

Great set of wheels. Do not give them away.

6s and 7s are the norm for stock 911SC.

Most folks look to upgrade to 7s and 8s.

The money combo was the 8's and 9s.

you can buy decent complete sets of 6s and 7s for around $1000.00.
7s and 8s are around $1500.00 for a set
8s and 9s are starting at $2500.00 for a set.

bank on $500-$700 for the pair of 7s

Awesome. Looks like Porsche finally got the message that there was money to be made off the old cars. Porsche Classic dealers, NOS magically appearing after years of SOL, and now this.

Awesome. My wife has finally given me the green light on buying Toyo R888R in 245/45/16 for my 16x9 replicas.

After this last honey-do came in so under budget that she gets a new dishwasher, we got 4 days in San Diego, and I get tires. Having spent four days installing 20x20 porcelain and 90' of monster baseboard I deserve it.....no?
