Default Lemon with OZ's

Mounted the OZ's this morning, ready for PCA Sebring this weekend. Eddie dropped them off yesterday, can't beat the home delivery. For less then $2200 I think they are a no brainer. Still don't like the center locks, much faster with 5 lug. Service from Eddie was impeccable as usual, only costs one Sam Adams

Looks very nice, makes the car look very good!

I agree these are the wheels to have if you don't go BB$. I might sell mine to help finance the fasterder RS...
What is that red ring? The bolt does not mate to the wheel directky, there is something in between?

Leave the caps off on the track or you will be buying new ones...

When I bought my 18s from tire rack they had only black. I was hoping for something other than black, and Damon said maybe eventually....

Plenty more available where those came from gents! Call me.

I just got these same wheels installed on my GTS. They are really nice. Damon at Tire Rack is so easy to do business with.

I was getting some Forgelines but Forgeline can't seem to deliver product so I got stuck and had to resort to these OZ's. These OZ's are super nice and I can't see why someone would want to pay $2,000 more and wait forever for some other wheel.

I'll see some of you all at Sebring tonight

Erik set up an elaborate sceme; He has someone buy it for him who kept it for a week and then resold it to Erik.

I would have never sold it knowing it would be used against me.
My new car is now for sale in the Champion show room..Full price unless it is export only ;-)

They are a red anodized color. 3 allen head screws hold them on...take them off and Krylon them with your color choice.
