Info is coming in...

Initial sizes and pricing are:

19X8.5 ET53 $629.00
19 x 9 ET47 $639.00
19 x 11 ET51 $679.00
19X12 ET63 $699.00
19 x 12 ET48 $699.00


Black only at this time. At this time wheels are 4-6 weeks out.

We have asked them to produce in 18" and are awaiting confirmation. At this time they have no plans to.

So, how does $2650 sound for 4 wheels that I would put toe to toe against anything forged for strength?

They are on the boat, get your orders in now!

I have a set of Superleggera IIIs on my GT3 for the past 3 years. I like 'em.

Got a set of 5-lug a couple of months ago for the track. Hard to beat at that price point... and they look pretty damn fine too

Sounds like a great deal. Might order a set to use as a winter beater with winter tires

Damon, does the available offset suit both the non-widebody GT3 and the widebody GT3 RS and centerlock 997TT, or are there different rear offsets available for each? The pic you posted shows a non-widebody GT3 so I take it the rears would look more recessed inside the wider rear fenders of an RS compared to stock?

I "think" the ET on the RS is 48 ...

Are the size and ET offsets identical to factory OEM 19 inch CL on the 997.2 GT3s? Will be interested in comparing weights also to OEM CL.

Damon,

Are you saying the wheels will be available in different offsets depending on the application, or just the same offset as the non-RS GT3 wheels, but will also fit the GT3 RS?

^^^ Hey Damon, there is reference to some superforgiatas on your website that are forged rather than cast wheels from Oz racing for the centrelock cars. Do you have likely availability and pricing (news article- 16th July)....

Assuming these will be even stronger than the Ultra HLTs????
