OZ Ultraleggera w 225/40/18
 

Snapped these at the dealer today.

Finally, a dealer with some decent taste in wheels. You should see the crap they tack onto the cars here in the States....:barf:

Those look good!!!!!

Love the look of these on the 86. Might not work with BRZ's look though

But for the money, I wouldn't mind shelling out just a bit more for the Alleggerita for the massive weight savings over this wheel.

ultra, can you get the wheel specs? (width & offset)

Added to the Wheel Directory:

18x8 +48 (rim moulding in the last pic says 8Jx18M2; +48 offset is apparently the corresponding offset according to the tirerack site).

Good spot! I updated the info on the Directory list. Thanks.

Nice find. I am looking at these wheels in 17", pretty sure I'm gonna get them now.

Those look very very nice. Not overdone or 'too much.'

wheels look great. toyota emblems on center caps is awesome. non-2tone trd kit looks really weird though.

This has to be lowered as well

Looks good, but needs spacers. Very tucked in.

May look better without the toyota center caps, but then again they are advertising their product.

Also, I dont likey the racing stripes on teh hood but thats OT :)

Very nice! I don't like that black hood stripes and I'm not sure if I like the front TRD bumper "mouth" & fog light area painted white to match the rest of the car or keep it black that Toyota had it originally.

They can't even properly center the Toyota emblem on the cap, WTF?

I saw those "canards" in another photo. Are they exclusive to the middle eastern market? Do they serve a purpose? Those wheels look awesome with the white paint.

No idea where the 'canards. Come from. Seen versions of this kit (mishmash of the TRD and Modellista rear diffuser/exhaust +wing in some cases) on press cars in the Middle East and South Africa with those stripes.

I think it's more of a tactic to grab the attention of the wider 'bling loving' market out there although the dealer says that they will be selling TRD parts at some point.

Al futtaim on the Sheikh Zayed road said to me august some time for the TRD stuff. Which falls in line with delivery timelines of cars ordered around now-ish :-) i've not seen the white one that up by festival city ultra?

Though not as "stancey" as some will like, i do like the use of 225 section width over, say, a 245. You get a bit more grip while still maintaining the tossability of the narrower tire. Problem with the big meats is they generate too much grip! For an autocross or track, that's probably a good thing for ultimate track times. But for this car's HP and torque levels, the lower grip provides a delicate balance and throttle adjustability that you will lose when upping your traction levels.

So nice! even the trd kit painted

Wish these came in a slightly wider setup. 17X8.5 or 17X9.0 would be perfect.

Looks good! I always wish they would have made a wider 5X100 Ultra or SuperLeggra. somewhere around 17X9

Ommm nom nom nom nom

Thanks to the guys @ Nitron Racing Systems

wow - dude, any chance of specs on those?? where did you find these pics? cheers! - saved to my wheel images folder

That pic just sold me 100% getting these wheels for next summer

Is that the silver or graphite color?

Believe they are the HLT's in 18x8 +35 but I could be off.

I want that rear on the black car!!!!

looks like a F430

I like how the spec on the black car looks - the one I posted was way tucked by comparison. :)

Silver or graphite color? internet pics always misleading with color, don't want to order the wrong one ^_^

I can only fnd Ultraleggera HLTs listed in 19".

Also can't find Ultraleggeras listed anywhere with a +35 offset in 5x100.

Maybe the Nitron folks are using spacers? Would seem a bit of an odd thing for them to do though since they're all about function.

That sucks for us now, I know they definitely had Ultraleggera's in 5x100 +35 and +48 in past.

Or it could be a custom order?

Edit: just checked Google and there are loads of used sets floating around in above offset/pattern. Sweet!

Hi, (this is my introduction) Mark from Nitron, here.

I noticed our photos from our FB page had been reposted here ( http://www.facebook.com/pages/Nitron...31653666845792 ).

I am afraid that I have to be very tight lipped about that particular car at this time. I hope to be able to let you know more about it shortly. Needless to say, its going to be quite an important build... More info on our news page soon.

Now - this thread is about the wheels. I can confirm that they look REALLY good on the car. they are also incredibly light (for what they are). Obviously the set here are shod with slicks. The finish on the wheels is fantastic; I would certainly have a set on my car (if I had one!). They show off the suspension and brakes nicely, too.

Thanks!

what kit is that on that black car?

Nice wheel choice, but the offset is whack. I'm not a hella-flush fanboy or anything but they need to be more flush.

I have the same rims in black on my MSM IS300.

I have something to add to that... I have only seen my rims on 4 cars now in 4 countries.

I may buy a set after seeing this -would also love to know the specs - I think I alreayd asked though, will patiently wait :)

yeah the +35 looks way, way WAY better than what's in the OP, especially in the rear
