That, in itself, is a comment.

Man that thing is low . Very Nice.
Too low for practical purposes, I agree ...

To heck with practical! If we were practical we wouldn't own these clown cars.
Most of the tastes on here lean toward traditional, I have found. When looking for approval, you have to be ready for that ...

I agree. Besides being too low for practical purposes it just isn't pleasing to my eye. That car is a beauty, but that height ruins the look for me. Just my opinion.

Thanks for posting this... the crab wheels are really pretty cool.

Nice! The prices are reasonable as well. Hmmm... I may be rethinking the color-matched wheels on the coupe.
I like the looks of the lowered coupe, ... alot, but I would not want to own it. I have had my share of impractical cars. I guess the supercars of today have hydraulics or an air compressor that raises the car for going over speed bumps and driving into driveways. I like Mango's set up because he can raise his car to a practical driving height and put it on the ground when he parks.
Whoa, that last wheel is pretty rad looking! I wonder how much weight it lost...
Al - I knew you'd like this one. I guess if OEM it would still be strong enough - doubt if cast aftermarket one.
enough holes for sure
Sort of reminds me of Magnus Walker wheels.
Every time I go back and look at those I keep thinking, "if I carved up some original Fuchs like that they'd be soooo light!". And now I can't get them out of my head...
@Panhandle Bob- taken to the next level!
I was talking to one of the guys on Instagram who machines these wheels in SoCal. I thought it would look nice and be a stronger wheel if it was not cut all the way down to the hoops, only the petals. He is willing to do this kind of work at a reasonable price. He said the wheels balance out better than the originals too!
See @vintagevdubs on Instagram. He seems to be the one doing the actual machining, according to previous conversations ...

Did some editing a while back to show what a cutface Fuch may look like on our cars. One for @Lane Anderson
