I wonder why they had to put that little "for offroad use only" disclaimer at the end of the advert...not TUV approved perhaps?

More like they want to absolve themselves of any potential lawsuits and by not getting them certified by the DOT and TUV organisations, they save some money.

Similar deal to having parts certified by the C.A.R.B., it is just too damned expensive to do, so many don't bother, even though many could easily pass.

Yeah, I'm Fuchs fan. I choose an 23mm offset specifically to use them. Unfortunatly I need 951 specific fronts (7J) but 911 (9J) would work at the back. "It's all about the money... honey"

Well I guess I will have to live with the 951 16" fonies for now. Its a a hard life....

Unfortunately if they fit 964s the offset is gonna be wrong for an early offset wide body.

Definitely had my eyes on those Joe, but the front offsets 36mm. The can be fit with some spacers but the look won't be just right. I wonder if the 9s would fit all around? Probably a tight fit in the front.

I'm a picky SOB... the Euromeisters only come with an anodized silver lip, I'm pretty much set on a high polish lip. I've got my eyes on a set of (4) 8X16 Ronals that I'd paint flat black but ultimately I expect I'll pony up for a set of real 8X9X16 Fuchs.
