IMHO you would probably be better off holding out for some original ones. They'll be much better made and look right.

Also why have knock off's when you can have originals!

I bought new wheels from Fuchs for my 3.3 turbo. They look fantastic!

At the time they were good value compared to the original set (now boxed and stored), they are even lighter than the originals and 30 year old wheels on a 150 mph+ car sometimes made me feel uncomfortable... Porsche sells the same wheels for a lot more money, they are just stamped differently on the inside.

Has anyone bought any of the new 15s?

Are they anodised like the originals? Or is it a different treatment?

And do they actually have the "EVOLUTION" text on the centres?
Yes I guess that might be hidden if you fit centre caps, but...

Hi!
I bought a new set EVOLUTION 7/8x16 last year, they look fantastic and are anodised.
I have the EVOLUTION stamped inside the centres.
As NurLinks say, it is the same wheel as Porsche sells but different stamped.
Go for it!
