    5.5 fuchs question

    I tried to research this but came up empty. I have a set of 5.5 fuchs but there is no part numbers on the back of any of the petals. There is the stamp of the fox......is this common on the 5.5?

    Thanks

    Thanks Richard these look to have been restored or painted years ago as the paint on the back is thick and has a weird texture....I know they are real due to the fox stamp. Just no date stamps or part numbers, weird.

    Here's a couple shots of the numbers on my 5.5" spare. If it is of any help.

    Thanks John,

    I did some more research under 4.5 and found a picture that matched what I have. The fox stamp is between the lug nut holes....maybe they are just early castings??

    Some of the fuchs had ink stampings and no stamped numbers. Drop Harvey W a line.
