Wheel Directory: OZ Superleggera 17x7.0 +48
Hey guys,
I just picked up a set of OZ Superleggeras 17x7 +48 from the NASIOC Subaru forums. They are 5X100 and have the same offset as the stock wheels. They are no longer in production but I was able to get them used for a nice price. I fitted them with Bridgestone RE11As and I can honestly say that the RE11As are a sweet setup for this car. I have already done one autocross last weekend with the new sticky tires. I will also be driving them as a daily 50/50 against the stock wheels and tires. One question though, I ran them 36psi front and rear (see pics below). It looks like I need to let a few pounds of air out to get more contact patch touching the road, correct? Thanks, Nate |

I run on 225 Rival's. I know not the same tire. But last autocross I ran them at 30f/29r. Morally I had them at 32 even. But I noticed my co driver was loose on the back end so I lowered all around to those settings. It settle down nicely. Took the class win. But I still need lots more improvement. Especially with all you young un's to compete against.
But all the tires will run differently depending on car, course, weather. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

a friend had some 17x7 OZ Superleggera kicking around that I picked up as a spare set of track wheels but since they had street tires on them already figured I would throw them on for a bit....not a bad look

I am still running those wheels with the RE11As now 2 years later! I put them back on in March and just did a track day about 2 weeks ago. Overall, for $500ish bucks for the wheels you can't beat em'. Lightweight, good looks, and good quality coming from a company like OZ. I originally planned going competitive in CS SCCA AutoX but recently I've been doing more and more track days and maybe FI in the future, so at some point I could upgrade to 17X8 or 17X9.
