Default What are these Rims???

Hello again!!

Thanks all for the replies on the previous thread. This time my brother would like to know what are these rims? so if you can help out ... to figure out the name of the part.

He asked me if anyone knows these rims on the forum....

I'll attach the pics he made me post.

Thanks.

There will be a date stamp too, close to the hub on the back. The date stamp (earlier they are the more $$ they are worth if pre '74).

i.e Stamp would be like 373 - would mean March 73........476 would be April 76.

Are these not common? How much are they worth for the records?

i dont know why 15 inch sevens would be considered more valuable. I would have thought they were amongst the least desireable Fuchs.

Nice find, yes, early 7X15 Fuchs, the 3 prong center cap is a give-a-way for the early rims.

Question is now, do you keep the Patine on them or Clean them up? Believe it or not Patina is in and for folks who are hunting these buggers down it may mean a premium for a preservation classer. I mean a simple washing won't hurt it's value but don't got ape-**** on the FLITZ Polish.
