They are advertised as "Fuchs", but they are actually "cookie cutters"--completely different and not as valuable.

I think the cookie cutter wheels were made by Fuchs.
I do agree that it is false advertising in a way.

well, the wheels are in good shape, and have decent tires on them. 300 is about as high as i'd go for those wheels/tires in that condition. maybe the guy bidding knows and he's just playing around for an extra set of wheels.

although, i know several much better ways to spend 300 bucks... now if i only had 300 bucks...
