Black Mamba,
You need to contact Barry on 07811 949923 or 028 6862 8774. (www.bnperformance.co.uk ). There is 3 in the group buy at the moment I believe so only 2 more needed.

Mark,
Last I heard Barry's supplier was expecting a large delivery about now, so with 5 of you it shouldn't be long.
Once the cash was sorted mine took 2 days.

Elias,
You need to contact Barry on 44 7811 949923 or 44 28 6862 8774. (www.bnperformance.co.uk ).
I believe they will fit you model but Barry should be able to confirm this, should be a 215/35 tyre.
The price was for a delivery to the UK, but I'm sure he will be able to ship to Greece for an additional charge.
Give him a call

been on to the uk oz supplier today and they tell me that these are the last five sets of oz prodrive that they will be importing into the uk and only because i had put an order in before this decision was made, but they will be still available at the sub dealers if you are willing to pay £1850 so if anybody wants one of the last two set of 18" oz prodrive with toyos on at 17" money now is the time to speak up as they are on there way and will be available in the next ten days only, this is not a selling tact they will not be available at this sort of money again the superleggra in gold is replacing them should anybody damage a 18" p1 wrc wheel there will be backup but at the full retail price. ps sorry Mark about not been able to take the credit card but ive been put off by a guy up the road from me who was done out of a lot of money recently because of credit card fraud and it has put me off the idea for now, saying that i do have the forms filled out and ready for off to set it up (but thats no help to you of course) again sorry for the inconvenience.

I had no choice only to reshod my 17's again as they were like slicks. But don't worry I'm not letting the group buy down. I'll still take the 18's and display them in the showroom. Someone will fall in love with them for a not so special price

Barry/ Kev S,
Just checking the thread - good to see the group buy happening although of course it makes my lovely wheels less exclusive
Are the centre caps coming Barry and what's this I hear about Magard locknuts

Cheers Barry
I do indeed have locking nuts on the car already. Having these wheels without them would really be an interesting exercise in risk taking! Mind you, two different sets would only make you sleep better...

Kingsize,
Barry is such a nice man he sent them as an apology for the delivery being a couple of days late. And helping him with the group buy I guess.
Anyway, you paid £5 less than me.
PS: Would like to answer on the centre caps. Can you chase them Barry. Cheers.

Just as a small aside to this thread, the 18" P-WRC1 wheel is currently, and has been for the whole time this thread has been live, available from your Subaru dealer and will continue to be so. This wheel is available in Gold, Anthracite and Silver and can be bought either with 225/40ZR18 Pirelli PZero Rosso tyres or without so you can specify your own tyres.
This 'deal' is not for UK sourced wheels and therefore they WILL NOT be the same as UK300 wheels in some respects.
I hope this helps to clear up any confusions that may have arisen.
Regards
Mike

Hi Mike
I just had to buy a wheel/tyre for My UK300 from a dealer. Lotta money mate!!! Are the wheels in the group buy actually different from the UK300 wheels, like I couldnt mix them up with my existing UK300 wheels cos they Look different? What exactly is the difference?
FYI - I just had the wheel I damaged repaired and powder coated, only the "Subaru" Gold they had is a diffferent colour. The guys who did the repair are getting the new colour and going to re coat the wheel for me. Could do with another set of wheels tho! Another group buy maybe?

Without actually seeing the wheels (looks like nobody has seen them yet!) I can't tell you the exact differences. It could be something small like the cap being different or something more major like the not having the OZ Racing logo or being a slightly different colour or offset.
We have used Wicked Wheels in the past who have managed to match every colour and finish we have given them so it may be worth giving them a try.

Mike,
I have them on my car now and I'm very happy. My dealer has confirmed that they are the genuine wheels, complete with Prodrive cast in and OZ Racing decals. The only difference I can see is they come with silver centre caps, as do gold OZ Superleggeras, (but they do say Prodrive by OZ on them). They are being sourced through the official UK OZ Wheels importer, so cutting out the middle man, hence the price difference. From my dealer £1900, from Barry, less than £1300 saving £600+, so very easy decision for me.
Oh, if anyone is bothered about the centre caps, these can be bought from the dealers separately. I was think about getting the gold ones, but now prefer them in silver. I say silver, but the are brushed aluminium.
Hope this clears up the confusion.
