Fuchs wheels

Did not realize that Fuchs did the OEM 19s for the E46 M3 and (all of?) the various wheels for the F80/82 M3.

No real point, other than they are so well known for their 911 design and I didn’t realize they made so many other OEM wheels.

Though by far the best surprise is that they did a wheel for the GMT800.

And the M2 comp rim. Although they show a version without any black in the wheel. Not a factory option.

One of the 19’s for the M3 is also the E9X version.

Yeah, I did know about that from my research when looking to buy the F80. I was looking to see about he cheapest way to get the 18” OEM F80 wheels for use in the winter. Way too pricey.
