No.

Personally, there is nothing more beautiful to my eye, than the original forged alloy FUCHS.

These are replicas. Making them even less iconic. I would love to see a strength and durability test. Maybe after 24 hours of enduring the high banks of Daytona at the 24 or at Le Mans. The REAL wheel has already done that and survived to become a legend.

Could these ?

Love my Fuchs... but those are really good looking wheels...they would look nice on a early 944 or 924S.

I like those a lot more than "regular Fuchs"
Although I like most wheels more than regular Fuchs.

Pretty sure the wheels in the first picture are the Magnus Walker specials.

I like them and think they would look great on a 944, plus the guys at Fifteen52 are really cool and love Porsches. Magnus Walker has a set of these on his Porsche 924 CGT.

I think they look great IMO.
Yes if you click the link it tells you about the Magnus and fifteen52 colab.

I'd get the 17" versions though or they'd look to big.

Replicas? No, they are tribute wheel, a very different concept. They are in the spirit of the originals but updated. And as to their quality, well they are forged wheels, like the originals, from a quality manufacture, also like the originals, so yes I would be willing to run them as race wheels.

The offsets are great for the early cars. not sure about the late cars.
The beauty of these wheels. they only come in a PCD of 5x130 so no ricer boy can run these on his civic or WV saying that I've got those outlaw 001 for the porsches on my dub. Which makes me want them more.
