ZERO FUCHS GIVEN

Ever wondered how Porsche arrived at the iconic Fuchs wheel design? At the same time as the 911 was being brewed up, Porsche was designing a lightweight, air-transportable tank for the German army (you’d reckon it might have learned its lesson there a few years earlier…). And the trackrollers for the tracks of those tanks were made by Otto Fuchs using aluminium alloy and a forging process for strength. No brainer.
