Question Alternatives to my Fuchs.

My 86 has 16inch fuchs on it, black spokes with silver rims. While it definitely doesnt look bad, I just think I'd like something else.

My current plan is to get new tires on the Enkei's on my 84, and swap them over.

Other than Phonies or super expensive BBS wheels, what do you guys think looks best with Guard's Red?

Post some pictures if you got 'em!

Thanks

I may be biased, but I think Fuchs look classic on our cars. Plus they are light, and strong. Have you given any consideration to getting them refinished, or maybe even changing their colour? Colour matching them to the car maybe?

Obligitory pic.

I agree with Tifo. There is no alternative to Fuchs. They are the ultimate. See sig pic below.

+1 on the Fuchs...even though mine are only 15", I still haven't seen an aftermarket wheel I like better on our cars.

Teddy Bear RIMMMMSSSSSS!!

Those are so rare made by a company called Ronal, I think they were an option on some european Audi's or something back in the day? VW guys love them.
