    wich fuchs for a RS replica ? possible swap deep sixes

    Hi all,
    can someone tell me what would be the fuchs that I need for a 911 RS replica ?
    I know that I need 7' and 8 ' but is 15 or 16 inch original and does that mean that i can buy a set of a later model 911 ?

    I currently have a set of early deep sixes ( 6x15 ) with hearts that are being refinished at wheelenhancement in it's original finish ( anodised with black centers ) I am open for trades , i would prefer to trade with a set for my rs conversion in the same finish as my deep sixes see pic :

    Usually '73 RS's came with flat 6X15's on the front and 7X15's on the rear. You could specify 7X15 (f) and 8X15 (r) if you wanted. The larger center cap hole on the 73's (3 prong center cap) would be the only noticeable difference between the early (73 MY) and later (74-mid 80's MY) 7 and 8X15's.

    Harvey Weidman said this about 15X7's as well: 'The 11 replaced the 01 for the 74 MY when the hubs were changed from lug centric to hub centric. They are the same offset as the 01 and usually the same thickness. They were easily identified by the new cap hole. The 41 (also the same offset) replaced the 11 when a thicker wheel was needed as the cars became heavier. The original finish was not polish or gun metal grey, they were anodized.

    I've got a set 7's and 8's for sale here: http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...ad.php?t=21434
