    Fuchs 9x15 Identification

    I have a set of wheels (8x15 & 9x15) that I'm struggling to read the date codes on. One appears to say 371, but it appears the it has 2 three's almost stamped over one another. Can anyone hazard a guess as to what I've got here?

    The wheels came off a 72 that was immediately converted to an ST clone in late 71 (with factory ST Flares, 2.55 liter engine etc), so it would make sense if the wheels were dated 371. Another appears to be 671, but why would the dates be different if they were all purchased and installed at the same time in late 71?

    Appreciate any insight from those "in the know"

    Easy for them to be different as Porsche would not sell in matched sets. Basically they pulled them off the shelf and sent them to the customer. Dates were not an issue back in the day.
    Just my guess

    Thanks Fubawu, that makes sense.

    Any ideas on the date codes and any guidance on value?

    Thanks!

    Date codes seem accurate looksike the 3/71 has a double stamp but don't put too much in that. You see many poor stamps on Fuchs.
    Value wise ..what stamps are in the 15x8?
    The 9's go around 2500-3500 8's around the same maybe 500 less. As many racers use newer date 8's
