EMPI 911 Alloy "Fuchs Style" Wheel 15x5.5 | All Chrome (5x130)

The Porsche Fuchs is one of the most legendary wheel designs ever made — and EMPI's 911 Alloy reproduction brings that timeless look to your Porsche or 5x130-converted air-cooled VW. This all-chrome variant features a triple-dipped chrome finish over the entire wheel face, lip, and spokes for maximum brightwork on classic 911s, restored Beetles with brake conversions, and Cal-Look builds running Porsche-pattern brakes. Sold each.

Vehicle Fitment

  • Porsche 911 / 912 / 914: verify offset for early/late applications
  • VW Beetle, Super Beetle, Karmann Ghia, Bus, Type 3: requires an aftermarket 5x130 brake conversion

Important fitment note: 5x130 was not a stock VW lug pattern. To use this wheel on an air-cooled VW, your vehicle must have aftermarket Porsche-pattern (5x130mm) brakes installed.

Why Choose EMPI?

EMPI's 911 Alloy reproduction captures the iconic Fuchs silhouette in a triple-dipped chrome finish, giving classic Porsches and Porsche-braked VWs a period-correct look that's hard to find in original wheels.

Installation

  • Lug bolts sold separately. Requires ball seat (R-14) lug bolts — NOT 60° conical seat. Using the wrong seat type will damage the wheel and is unsafe.
  • Once tires are mounted, the wheel cannot be returned.
  • Have your tire shop verify the wheel is true before mounting tires.

Chrome Wheel Care

Wash only when cool. Hot chrome can bake soaps into the surface. Apply automotive wax or chrome detailing spray regularly to preserve the finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
