Price for new set of 17" Prodrive Oz in Anthracite with Toyo T1-S Tyres from Company in Oldham would cost you £935.00. You can gauge from the new price if the second hand ones are a bargain. Take it that these are the Alloys that are up to £620.00 on Ebay. I bought a set of 18" Prodrive Oz in Gold from the Company in Oldham for £1200.00, which is a big saving from buying direct from Subaru.

I paid £600 ish for 4 brand new rims last year (trade price)

I think that they retail at around £200 each new (without tyre)

New ones are £200 each inc VAT, that set on Ebay has reached one heck of a price, bear in mind if there is curbing damage on one of the wheels and you want it refurbed you will loose the nice OZ Racing on the rim, as far as I can tell this is painted or printed not a decal, that is if it is still there...

Refurbers apply decals after powder coating & before laquering

Thanks everyone, it was the ones on ebay, was hoping people would come up with a cheaper way for me to acquire some beautiful wheels!

Can anyone post some piccies of their wheels in silver or anthracite in 17 or 18, still a little unsure on 18's as i've been warned off by some but others have said they have no probs, would be going on a my99. Really need advice on which size to go for and then different opinions on what looks best on the classic.

My 18" OZ Prodrives in Anthracite on a newage WRX..much darker than I thought before I bought them tbh..

V1CK1

They look really good, need to know what things look like on a classic for me, but the other half who has a new age wrx asks "what tyres are you running on?"

Bartop

Came with P Zero Rossos 225/40/18's. Wish I'd asked them for the Toyo Proxes instead though..

BrynO

That's good to know if I scuff one of mine then! presume they are available from OZ then.

bought these 18's off ebay (guy was a scoobynetter aswell) for £750 plus my old std my99 alloys (approx total £850ish)

can be had new for £1175 from wheelbase , this is for gold, not sure if they do the anthracite.

mixed reviews on 18's on classics, but i've never had any probs rubbing or anything. grips better than my previous 16's & 17's, little more aquaplaning but nothing drastic. rides abit harsher than 17's but that's the downside to having a rubber band for a tyre

oh, and the size difference between 17 and 18's (little and large)

pappasmurf

....would the performance/handling characteristics of 18's on a classic all be the same or would it vary depending on the weight/style of the wheel?
ie:...are some 18" rims considerably better then others as i was considering some 18" Fox Evo 3 rims for my Classic.

Jon, if you're looking for 18's then there's a lovely set in For Sale. They're Ultralites in bronze which is actually a superb colour, not bright and tarty like gold. They even come with the new Toyos, and the wheels and tyres look as new. Being offered by Jason Knowles. Looks like a bargain to me.

pappasmurf

...I'll take a look. I agree gold looks tarty, especially on Mica Red.
Was thinking of Evo 3's in Titanium.

Re the ones on Ebay - 2 of the tyres are half worn and 2 have covered 400 miles.
