Default Pics of Jeff Alton Fuchs on late offset 944

I wanted to share some pics for anyone interested in 17 inch Jeff Alton Fuchs.
7.5 's on front and 9's on the rear.They are a perfect fit and would recommend them for anyone that likes the Fuchs look but has a late offset car.
I bought them through Craig Richey at Richey Racing and would recommend doing business with them.He kept me updated on the progress as these are built to order.

Thats the really good part.They don't weigh any more than the smaller factory wheels.They are forged 3 piece and weigh around 15 pounds.The back of the barrels are black also,so brake dust won't show.
They are not as cheap as cast wheels,which are not available with the late offset anyway.The cost is around $2800 for the set.But the way I understand the building process,each center takes around 8 hours on a CNC machine to make.

Nice wheels.
Dont the petals on the front wheel look too proud or is it just the way the picture is taken?

So I'd imagine if these were made in early offset there would be a pretty sweet lip/dish?

It is just the angle,the front and rear are the same.

They do make them in early offset also and you can make those very deep dish if you want,up to 11 or 12 inches I think,but don't quote me,I am going from memory.

I would love a set for my car - even though it's an early offset - just for the 17" size! That looks great!
