Starchy 911sc Posted 15August, 2019 Report Share Posted 15August, 2019 Searching for one original Fuchs 16 x 9 rim (ET = 15) or a replacement pair as I have just noticed a crack across one of the spokes in one of my wheels. The photos show the crack evident of both sides. I am based in Melbourne. Let me know what you have available. Regards, Andrew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan Posted 16August, 2019 Report Share Posted 16August, 2019 G'day, most unusual for 9 x 16 to crack. I have a near new pair of Euromeister wheels, any interest? Cheers Stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starchy 911sc Posted 16August, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 16August, 2019 Hi Stan, thank you for your reply. According to a few posts on the Pelican Forum, there were some concerns with 9” Fuchs and that eventually they all suffer from cumulative metal fatigue. As I have just started looking, I will persist for a while looking for a single 16” x 9” replacement and may come back to you about some replica Fuchs.

LeeM Posted 16August, 2019 Report Share Posted 16August, 2019 No chance at repairing it? You'll be surprised at what a good shop can do with these things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
