If the caps from your Fuchs are the early type with 3 prongs to hold them in, they aren't the right ones. CCs use the same cap as late Fuchs, with the solid ring to hold them on.

Thanks for the info I kinda thought so. I have the late caps. I guess over time they just loosen up on the rim. I will have to rework the caps to make them snyug again.
