[ ironic with your id pic lazi. ]

anyways, enough teasing, i can't hold it in either... heh...

I really liked the look of the Superleggaras back in the day, but unfortunately O.Z. did not make 18's in gold for an rx-8.

also, the new superleg 3's cost close to $1G per rim!

but recently they came out with the O.Z. Ultraleggaras

so now all i gotta do is wait till summer.

anyways, here's the pics! enjoy!

the reason i'm not quite certain if i want to mount them yet. b/c i remember one year, it was snowing in march....
but then again... what's the chances of that happening again in vancouver......


hm... know what? i will mount them as soon as possible.. lol...

the only thing though i have to wait for the centric rings to get in,
tire rack didnt have them in stock at ther warehouse so, i'll get them on a.s.a.p. when the rings get in.

if it snows i'll just put mah snow tires back on.

i drive with my rims all year round.. if it snows for the 3 -7 days of winter i either park it or just take it easy and hi-pressure hose off the dirt and saltfrom the wheels and fender wells...its not like they are polished like mine or even chrome..


nice rims id like to see those sometime around town...i would have personall gotten a lower offset though...

are they? I think it really depends on offset and the width of the rim. I doubt it be that light with a width of 8.5 or more. I'm planning on picking up a set of 18x9 too soon when I get FI'ed.
