Default OZ Racing and TireRack introduce the Superforgiata Forged 1-Piece

Brand new from OZ this fall! Matte Silver Tech is OZ’s name for the finish, and will be the first color we will sell. There will be limited availability for this wheel, so to start this will be the first available color. Other colors added down the road as special orders. Both center-lock and regular wheels will be available. Porsche, Audi R8, RS, BMW M, Nissan GTR, Lambo fitments are planned (19” diameter first) with the first wheels into the US being Porsche. Pricing is not set yet but we expect it to be WELL below other brands for a wheel of this quality, especially in centerlock.

The only weight we have been given is a 16.5lbs estimate for 19x8.5 front Porsche 5-lug. Center-lock they said will weigh 1-1.5lbs more.

We will get several sets delivered before the end of the year with additional sets for March/April delivery.

I'll be sure to advise when we get final pricing!

Beautiful! I'm definitely interested in this one. It will be a great switch from my winter set you are about to sell me - alleggeritas!

I hope they are available in Cayman offsets. I actually would prefer the 19" ones.

^ I have the 18" Alleggeritas, and from Damon (great guy to do business with). Nice wheel. Buy and don't worry about the latest greatest.

Plus, truth be told, OZ did the same thing with the Alleggeritas - TR given mouth-watering specs and an anticipated delivery date - only to overshoot (delay) delivery of same by a factor of months, so......

Nice looking wheel, tho.
