Agree. RSR Fuchs have a dull anodized center and rim. Don't know if they ever came polished like that from the factory.

As for the tires, there are a number of manufacturers (Dunlop, Michelin, Avon) that produce modern versions of vintage racing tires that should fit these wheels. Most are slicks, some are grooved for wet conditions. You can have the slicks grooved if you really wanted to use them on the street.

Well he does state they were refinished by Al Reed, who is basically well known for polishing just about anything to a mirror finish. So cosmetically they are not correct.
