Thread: 6R & 7R Fuchs

  1. #1

    6R & 7R Fuchs

    As promised I took some photos of my 6x15 (and 7x15) 911R Fuchs.

    The ink part number for the sixes is visible on one rim, and partially visible on the other: 911.361.012.03.

    As you can see above these are stamped Novermber 1967.

    The ribs on the back look a little more irregular than on regular deep sixes:

    I also stopped in at the local post office. I assume the scales are pretty accurate & made sure to zero them first.

    7x15's 911.361.012.05: 12lbs 1oz

    6x15's 911.361.012.03: 11lbs 12.5oz

    Thanks. They are just a tad lighter than some other Fuchs of the same respective sizes...

    I forgot to mention- I also have spacers with these. A pair of 21mm & a pair of 3mm. Would these have been the standard sizes the factory used on the 911R?

    Yes, 21mm was what the factory provided on the rear for 911R wheels, but these are a bit too large for the modern 215 or 225 tires usually used with this wheel.

    I have one of these 7R wheels. Can anyone give me an idea what it is worth? I need 4-16x5's for my 912 project if anyone has any.

    16x5? Now that would be a rare animal.
