Yes, while you're budgeting for your Otto Fuchs out of Germany we will be enjoying our inferior, weaker and heavier Porsche OEM wheels that look nice from afar. Thanks for sharing! Leave it to Porsche to cut corners and use inferior products on their six figure sports cars......Really?? Hey Dan, haven't you been talking about getting Fuchs wheels for about 3 years now?

Except for the Turbo wheels, all the Porsche OEM wheels are cast - including the Carrera Sport wheels that many folks are so fond of. The Otto Fuchs wheels are awesome, but I personally feel the OEM Porsche Sport Classics look the best (near or far).
