Although the I thought the only OZ wheels available in the UK that fit a Subaru are the Super T's (Multispoke) or the Polaris (Chunky 5 spoke)

The SuperT's are specially designed for the Scooby, and are slightly different to the standard Super T's!

They are only available in GOLD, measure 17" by 7" and normally sell for around £1100 to £1200 with tyres.

Check if they are the gold Super T's.

That said, I think they'd look good on your black car Penni!

Have your insurers checked out the price of a standard Subaru wheel at their local dealer.

I am fairly certain that they are more expensive than most aftermarket wheels.

Crazy really.

Question

Can someone tell me what 'Oz' wheels are?
(and I'm not sure I spelt it right either)

my insurance will only pay for 3 new alloys which will match my current wheels... or 4 new 'Oz' wheels...

which would be better to do???

Thanks guys
Penni

Hi Penni,

OZ are a wheel manufacturer, what you need is to know which model of OZ wheel they are prepared to replace them with ?

If they are Supertourismo Evolutions, they are a multi spoke wheel similar to the rally car wheels !

OZ wheels are a brand name for alloys and a good brand at that. if you check out a wheel suppler or any good mag to see thier range .
they even do nice gold jobbes with logos and everything.

hope this helps

What wheels do you currently have? It would be really ugly if you have standard wheels and you go for OZ, because then some insurance companies would charge a premium at renewal time!
False economy!

Penni,

What have you done to your car.

First suspension arms and now new wheels?
