One of my friends wanted these for his TT. They are pretty sick looking. I am pretty sure they come in other colors as well.

I have them in silver...Wish I could have got the dark grey. They are a bitch to clean and the center caps are cheap plastic.

OZ makes good, quality wheels. Those are a pain to clean but that dark grey color would hide dirt/dust well.

I have these wheels in the gunmetal color just waiting for my Azenis tires to get here.


They look really good and their lightweight, I'll post pics of them on the car in a month or two.

How are O.Z.'s for street driving. I was looking at a set of O.Z. Superleggera (previous line to the Ultraleggera) for a good price, but was wondering how durable they would be for street driving. They're also lightweight (around 18.4lbs) for an 18X8.5 with 45 offset. BTW, anyone have pictures with either on their cars? Mine's Galaxy Gray and the Superleggera's I'm thinking of getting are silver. DARKMAZ8 are you thinking of getting those on our side of the border? I like 'em!

no problems... i know a few ppl in sydney with audis (A3/S3's, A4TQ's) have them for street & some trackday drivings.
they are light weight and strong... hence the exxy price tag

ps. here is Oz... we probably have some of the worst roads.... especially in sydney.

What size did you go with? I loved these wheels but couldn't find a offset, and size and colour that made sense? +having no concave face is kinda cruddy.

Other than that easily my 2nd favourite wheel. Congrats.

Those are definitely some nice looking track day rims. They're not as fragile as other rims in the same category too. The downside is that they are pretty common where I live

Any pics or opinions of them in black on a phantom blue car? Even though i'm sure gunmetal would look best.

Black may be too heavy, they made them in a cool antracite colour but i'm not sure if they are still in production
