Hi all,
Looking at options for my 57reg Cayman S, I love the Fuch look ....but not the price tag for originals! Any suggestions re alternatives in a similar style? I appreciate many suppliers are US based, that's ok.
Cheers

I've just bought a set of the Group 4 Fuchs reps as featured in 911&PW mag a couple of months ago (and again this month). They are heavy, but the quality seems good and they have a nice dish to them, which was the main attraction for me. They're not on the car yet (996 C2), but will be soon !

They're not on the website yet, but are available in a variety of colours.

IIRC the Fuchs wheels are the lightest 18" wheels you can get. These are the wheels the owner of the CarreraLightweightRacing 996choose for his super light 996. And he is really serious about weight saving!

Also the benefit of the original Fuchs is, that they hold their values really well! If you want to sell them on, you get most of your money back.
