A Quick Look at Maxilite

Maxilite information on this page is based on details supplied by the manufacturer or distributor, plus any OE references provided with the parts.

Choosing the Right Fit for Your Porsche

Where Maxilite is listed for Porsche, use the supplied model coverage and OE references to confirm suitability. Check details that commonly affect fitment such as model year, side/position, and connector type where relevant.

• Typical reasons to choose these wheels include replacing damaged original Porsche wheels, achieving a classic appearance on restorations or backdate builds, and improving everyday usability while keeping a period-correct look.
• Common wheel issues include kerb damage, lacquer peel, corrosion, slow air leaks, and vibration from poor balancing or incorrect hub fit. Fitment problems often relate to offset, tyre sizing, or the wrong bolt seat type.
• For practical checks, confirm centre bore, offset (ET), and brake/arch clearance before purchase, and consider whether different bolts or nuts are required if you use spacers or change wheel design.

Wheels — Wheels are typically replaced to repair damage, refresh corroded or kerbed finishes, change styling, or adjust weight and fitment for tyres and suspension. Where listed for Porsche, they can help achieve the right stance, improve brake clearance, or restore a factory-style look while maintaining safe offset and clearance.

• Investigate vibrations or steering shake promptly; often linked to wheel balance issues or a buckled rim.
• Always confirm wheel width, offset (ET), and brake/arch clearance before buying or fitting.

Fuchs Wheels 15" Matt Ultralite — This category focuses on 15-inch matt ultralite Fuchs-style wheels, chosen to reduce unsprung weight and sharpen steering response while keeping a classic Porsche appearance. They are often used where owners want a lighter-feeling drive without an overly showy finish.

• Lighter wheels can improve steering and suspension response but should be checked carefully for bends or cracks after heavy impacts or potholes.
• Maintaining correct tyre pressures helps reduce impact damage risk and protects rim edges.

Fuchs Wheels 15" Chrome Ultralite — These 15-inch chrome or bright-finish ultralite Fuchs-style wheels are selected primarily for standout aesthetics on classic or show-focused Porsche builds. They aim to combine the traditional design with a high-impact visual finish where compatibility is confirmed.

• Chrome and bright finishes need careful cleaning; once the coating is damaged, pitting and corrosion can spread, especially in winter conditions.
• Rinse off road salt promptly and avoid aggressive cleaners to prolong the life of the finish.

Fuchs Wheels 15" RSR Ultralite — This category covers 15-inch RSR-style ultralite wheels, typically chosen to echo classic Porsche motorsport looks while targeting improved performance through reduced weight and focused design. They are popular where a more purposeful, track-inspired appearance is desired and the widths/offsets suit the chassis.

• Incorrect width or offset can cause rubbing, vibration, or poor handling, so always compare the wheel specs with your current setup.
• Check brake and arch clearance at full steering lock and full suspension compression after fitting.

Fuchs Wheels 16" Matt Ultralite — These 16-inch matt ultralite Fuchs-style wheels are used where owners want a classic look with a slightly larger diameter and reduced unsprung weight. They are intended to enhance steering feel and suspension reaction while keeping a subtle, road-friendly finish where fitment is correct.

• If vibration appears after pothole strikes, inspect wheels for buckles or cracks and tyres for bulges.
• Keeping tyre pressures within the recommended range and avoiding kerb impacts helps preserve both ride quality and wheel condition.
