I was going to say they were from someone's hideous line. Those are somehow more fugly than real Fuchs, IMO.

To each their own though.

If they're not from Fuchs, they're a really close knock off of the FP.3.

While I've never been a huge fan of Fuchs aesthetically, I have grown to appreciate them having felt how much amazingly lighter they are than virtually all other OEM Porsche wheels.

As for the FP series (and other modern variants that interpret the original Fuchs form), I think they look great on the 50th anniversary 911 (and the Cayman and Boxster). Not so much on the 924/944. I know a lot of people like to "update" the look of their cars, but to my eye, there's something visually jarring about late model designs and sizes on the classic 70s and 80s body styles.


In any event, you can get the FP wheels here (I suspect they have the FP.3 although it's not on their wheel catalog yet):

And here is the more appealing (IMO) 50th anniversary wheel:

To my eye, the FP.3 has a more "cartoonish" aspect than the FP.1, the latter adhering more closely to the original design.
