Fuchs wheel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fuchs wheel or Fuchsfelge is a specialty wheel made for the first Porsche 911 model in the early 1960s.[1] Designed in conjunction with Otto Fuchs KG [de], Porsche modeler Heinrich Klie and Ferdinand Porsche Jr for the 1967 model year Porsche 911S, the Fuchs wheel was the first light-weight forged wheel to be fitted to a production automotive vehicle. They provided the rear-engined sports car with a reduction in unsprung mass, using a strong and lightweight alloy wheel.[2]
