Title: O.Z Rims....
Post by: Manu_R32 on 08 December 2007, 14:27
What do you guys think of O.Z Rims...for some reason majority of people have BBS Rims and i feel they are starting to get abit common now....was thinking of ordering a set of these for the R32...

Imo...i think they will look nice, 18's on a Tornado Red R32  :smiley:

Those are nice but for that price i think i'd go for BBS's....aswell the BBS has that "carbon fibre" centre cap..im waiting for a reply from OSIR for a price on their rear carbon diffuser and front carbon splitter...think it would look nice??

The dish on the Superleggera 3's would look good on a Golf. They are pricey but like BBS they are well made wheels and genuine 2 piece split rims

Aswell...if i get deep dish my dad will know they are not from factory...i told him the VW Garage were gonna sort out some Zolders for me instead of Omanyt at an extra charge so...i want something that looks abit more standard if u catch my drift?

Haha, nice trick. The Superturismo's look like Zolders

Sorry no - those rims although light are on a lot of chavvy motors these days - usually from halfords - Golf = BBS all the way! (unless you like rockinghams!) :kiss:

Post by: Manu_R32 on 08 December 2007, 16:43
Rockinghams are nice but not to sure about having them on an R32....want something abit more agressive and if O.Z are what all the chavs are running about on well then....no thanks  :smiley:

please, no Rockinghams on R32, they will not look good on R32 in m opinion. R32 needs something carnivorous  :evil: to match that roar. I'd look for something from iForged.

Title: Re: O.Z Rims....
Post by: joesgti on 10 December 2007, 12:55
no i dont think so. i think they would look better on a gti not r32 because the red would go with the brakes and red grill!! there growing on me  :evil:

I toyed with gettin these rims for my old mk5 but I imagined every time I looked at them I would think they are 'replica's' and I would just be dissapointed, dont get me wrong they are a fantastic looking wheel, one of my favourites. The black and red ones would look fantastic on my ed30 as its white but I
just cant bring myself to do it, I would just rather save up an get some genuine ones.
Title: Re: O.Z Rims....
Post by: Hurdy on 10 December 2007, 20:11
Genuine ones would have to be painted black and red anyway, if you wanted them. That would then officially be sacrilage :lipsrsealed:

If you buy genuine LM's then you have to have the gold centres for the proper race car look
