Value of Fuchs

[portiapete]

I have a set of five 1968 5.5 x 15 Fuch Alloy wheels that are not perfect, but not bad and was wondering what price range I should ask?

rather nice ride

I don't have a good feel for the market value of 5½ x 15 Fuchs but I can't help sharing some of the 4½ x 15 Fuchs I spotted at the Lit Meet:

I think economists would rate this as zowie.

And I did not see that either of these sets SOLD which is the beter determination of value. Someone correct me if they know different on these?

[NeunElf]

I don't know if they sold, I was just amazed by the asking prices.

But $ 10,500 for five ($ 2,100 each) doesn't strike me as that out of line for rare 4½ x 15 Fuchs wheels for a particularly valuable car, particularly when a set of five would completely "solve the problem" in one purchase.

+1 on the set of 5. They were beautiful too.


The 5.5 are not as desired (= less valuable) but i think you can probably shoot for 800-1k a pop.



I did see an early RS Fuchs set at the swap meet? 11/72 i think they were dated. beautifully done. 7k ask i think

Tend to agree with Jules, That has been the range and not over the top. Condition may cause some additional variation in worth.
My two cents worth, which I am offering for free.
I love the early S site, good bunch in my opinion,
