New Magnus Walker Designed Wheels

I'm quite liking these wheels. The obvious homage to the fuchs is kinda cool. The black finish on these looks very moody and very mean. I think they'd be cool on a black car. I guess there's a nagging feeling that with a wheel so closely associated with an individual that you're going to draw mixed emotions from people and maybe a little ridicule for maybe being a wannabe but I personally don't look at it that way. It's a good looking wheel to my eyes and I think that Mr Walker is a successful dude, who love's Porsches and love's indulging his passion. Given his current pinnacle like status he's doing exactly what he wants to be doing, enjoying his cars, his position and making a few personal dreams come true. He not curing a rare disease or fostering world peace but as a car nut I salute him. I might be brave enough to go for a set of these if the price isn't too nuts by the time they gets to this side of the pond. Nice one Magnus.
I completely agree. I think the design is very smart - wonderful evolution of the original design through the use of sharper and more defined edges.
However as much as I think these look great IMO Fuch wheels as a whole don't suit our cars. I personally prefer period correct wheels. That's not to say I'm a purist, hell I like non standard 964s as much as the next... but I'm not a fan of seeing 964s with Fuch wheels, duck tails and Carrera decals in combination. It's not a 2.7RS!
I like proper 964 backdates on appropriate examples, but just not a fan of mixing and matching looks.
For a long nose 911, yeah definitely!
For a 964, give me LMs, E28s, Cup 1s, Speedlines every time.

+964 as ever, very eloquently put Mike.

993 with 16's and super meaty tires. Looks like he bought the RAW finish and had them done in anodized bronze.
