Narrow Fuchs were never sold for road Audi's, so also the 100 has 7 x 15 ET 45.
They do exist, in 6 x 15 or 150 x 390, but were only build for Audi Sport. Ideally to race with nail snow tires.

Michèle at her best...

Looks like the car they were on,went on fire?Or where they were stored,went alight?
Would heat,warp them?

I'm thinking the same....don't know if I'd be happy having heat damaged wheels on my car

john johnson · 02-01-13, 07:03 PM

Dunno but they can be a sod to refurb

BIGGYIN · 02-01-13, 07:35 PM

I'm surprised they didn't go up in a,bright blue/white flash.

(I remember

my chemistry lessons,Magnesium ribbon.)

I would imagine that under a high enough temperature there is a chance that they may warp.I will leave that calculation to someone on here with more knowledge in that area.
Just a thought.

It's clear that the seller has no idea... Magnesium, tss tss...

Forged alu, yes, and not a good match with fire and heat. Problem is that you can not bend forged alu like a normal wheel. This material is so hard that it cracks under pressure.
Never seen Fuchs in such a bad condition.

Success for the buyer!
