OZ Alleggerita and BFG R1-S
Just ordered a set of OZ Alleggerita wheels in 18" x 8/10 with BF Goodrich GForce R1-S tires for autocross. I originally attempted to order 4 285/30/18s, but the R1 has too stiff a sidewall to mount that wide of a tire on an 8" wheel like can be done with hoosiers.
I won't be home for awhile to enjoy them but will post pictures once I arrive.
Whole setup was about $3000 delivered from Tire Rack. Not bad for brand new!

I got the anthracite because it was the cheapest. I liked the graphite silver metallic, but when I compared it to pictures of the car they actually looked a bit too dark, and I couldn't justify the extra money.
The bright orange ones seemed autocross appropriate, but my fiance/codriver wasn't a fan.
Ultimately I will get a square setup with 285 A6s but these should be fun to learn on regarding how the car responds to rcomps.
