I finally got a chance to swap my OZ's onto the car. ET51 is pretty flush.

Its pretty close. The back wheels are defiantly not as flush as the ones up front. I will send these out to be repaired/repainted in the coming weeks. Its on the OE suspension so far.

Looks nice, not flush IMO, I run 18x8et45 and I'm not flush either. I thought about running spacers on the rear, but not worth it for a half inch.

Great choice of wheels and wheel color!

Hmmm... I was going to add this to the Wheel Directory, but these wheels look just like the Ultraleggeras... and I can't find Superleggeras on the OZ website. Is this a wheel that has been discontinued or did you get the name wrong?

The Supers are discontinued and only the Ultras are available "new". It is basically the same rim with a slight difference in the spokes.

OZ Superleggera 18x8 +51

Paid $100 a wheel for these with tires. Still deciding on if I want to have them finished in a different color. Feel a touch lighter than stock. When the tires are shot I'm going with something narrower and not as tall, seems to extend the gear ratios noticeably now.

Specs:
Stock suspension, .25"-.5" from tire to spring
18x8
offest 51 which I think in this width is about perfect, at least for me.
Current 235/40-18 star specs.

I love the design of the wheels, not sure about the gold on orange though. Black or silver would look nice...
