Damon, I want to thank you for all your comments. There were A LOT of alternative brands to check out when chosing a wheel. Which really ends up being a personal decision. Fast wheel assembly and shipment too from TireRack. Thanks for your assistance in the process.

quality+

OZ/BBS just gives you a sense of completeness that no HRE, Kinesis, whatever can touch.

well done

Thx for the kind words all. Hard choice with all the great alternatives out there.

Q8, the wheels are heavier than the stock hollow spoke 18’s, and certainly heavier than racing wheel spec. Should be some info on the TireRack site, which also has their prices. Oz’s as a brand, seem to be well priced.

Smoothcab, you’re right, it changes the overall presence. With a mild lowering from the X73, and the wider rims/rubber, the car now looks more purposeful. Imho, the 6-spoke pairs gives it a strong modular and open, but not too flashy look.
Allan, I don’t mind seeing these oz wheels on other P-cars. Any more out there?

Where did those Porsche centercaps come from? I get asked for those all the time!

Thanks for the compliments guys, they really do look nice on the car. I have our first shipment of black centers coming in next week too if anyone is interested. Feel free to give me a call. Remember, we ARE OZ America now so I will match anyone else's price on these. And if they ever get damaged I will be the one who takes care of getting them fixed for you. too.
