Fuchs 15x7 wheels - last call



No, I'm not selling Fuchs, but it appears that the warehouses are running
out of the wheels.  Once the main depot in Kassel is empty, there might be a
just few wheels scattered around the world for our consumption.  I just
ordered eight new wheels just to cover my ass.  This leaves me with two sets
of 8" Ronals, one new with P Zeros for daily driving, one old/beaten for
track and one set of Fuchs with some modern studded tires with old style
14mm (legality questionable) studs.  One set of Fuchs will be stashed for
future projects.  BTW, the 14mm studs cannot be used with the new Nokian
rubber due to the new mounting style for new 9mm studs.

If you want a set of new Fuchs or Ronals, I'd start ordering soon - they
won't be around in 15 years when you wanna restore that UrQ.  On another
note, does anyone know what summer/winter rubber is still available in
Michelin's metric TRX sizes?  I could pick up a set or two of old factory
UrQ race fuchs, but they are 15.something in diameter.  I dont think there
is any new production of the TRX rubber nowadays, but would there be old
stock (good for show purposes) around?
