I thought I would bring some information to light on Porsche wheels. The "Cookie Cutter" wheels replaced the steel wheels for the '73 model year 911T. They were 6" front and rear until the SC's in 1978 when they came with 6 and 7's. The term "Cookie Cutter" was coined by Porsche enthusiast's to describe the wheel from ATS, as ATS manufactured a number of different wheels for the auto industry. The 944 "Cookie Cutter" came with the black center and machined outer. The Porsche distributor in, Culver City, Ca. sent me an ATS "Cookie Cutter" and asked if I could make it look more like the Fuchs wheel. I tried several different looks but none were acceptable for a production process, so they went with the black center and machined outer then powder coated the wheel. BTW the Fuchs were either called "S" pack wheels or "Daisy" wheels in the "day". Also some of the prettiest wheels out there are the full polished "Cookie Cutters". Al Weidman |
