Which do you prefer?

They are both cracking wheels and I had the same dilema a little while back (albeit on a WRX and not STI).

I wanted the OZ in Crystal Titanium but opted for Gold as they were much cheaper.

Cheers

I wondered where my post went....didnt realise I was in 'Suspension' at the time...doh!

I definately dont want gold, one of the reasons for change, so its one of the two in the pic.

Im leaning towards the FF7s at the moment as I think the OZs may be a bit bright, also I had the gold ones on my previous UK300 and they were harder to clean. Someone also mentioned the FF7s were lighter.

Anyone know the weight of both wheels?

What is a good price for a set including tyres?

I agree FF7s. Oz are to common now!

I had Oz and went to FF7s on 18s on my classic. Its in gold but you said you dont want it in gold so go silver.

Definitely FF7s though, stand out much better

Edited to say i dont know what the weight is but i found the FF7s much better in handling. I dont know if it was becuase the Oz were in toyos and the FF7s are in pirelli's, or the different weight, but i found the FF7s much better at corners
