Thread: Fuchs fitment from part number?

    Fuchs fitment from part number?

    I am looking at a set of 15X7 fuchs for my narrow body 73.

    The part number is 911361020 they look in the picture like they should be an excellent fit - is anyone using a similiar rim who could comment? May be post a photo.

    Also how can you tell the date of manufacture?

    Thanks

    The part # 911 361 020 is not definitive enough to find which wheel it is. There are two digits that should come after that. 7 x 15 should be 911 351 020 41. The 16" Fuchs have the same 911 361 020 part # with differing trailing identifiers (e.g. 44 is a 7 x 16 wheel).

    At any rate, yes that wheel will fit on your 73 with judicious tire selection. I think 205/55/15 is the biggest you can realistically fit, although I believe some have fit 225/50/15?? Rolling your fender lips will help the fit, but IIRC the issue is rubbing on the fender and burning your paint when the suspension is compressed.

    I have 15x7 on all corners of my 1969 without issues.

    Apparently they end in 41 which should be correct for 15s.

    I currently have repo Fuchs on the car in 15X7 with 205-60s and they aren't showing any signs of rubbing. I believe the offset of real Fuchs gives better clearance.
