I AM INTERESTED IN A SET OF THE GOLD 15 SPOKE
WHEELS AS FITTED TO THE WRC TEAM CAR
ANYONE KNOW OF ANYTHING SIMILAR AND THE NAMES OF SUPPLIERS. AND EVEN THE THE SUPPLIER OF THE ORIGINAL WHEELS WHICH I BELIEVE ARE MAGNESIUM AND VERY EXPENSIVE

 

The wheels used on the WRC car are made by Oz Racing. Probably Magnesium (or some other special alloy). I think they will likely cost about £700 - £1000 each if you are after the originals. Prodrive might be able to help you out (www.prodrive.com)

Similar style wheels are the Oz SuperTurismo (ask most major aftermarket wheel outlets, or search through previous posts on this BBS), and the Scoobysport MIM alloy (www.scoobysport.co.uk). Both are 17inch wheels though, and not 18 inch as fitte to the WRC car.

 

I have OZ 17" Super Tourismos on my DBM - they do look the dogs danglies

I'm in Lancashire if you are in the area and want to see them....

 

I happen to have a set of 17" gold O.Z. supertourismo alloys for Impreza (4 off) brand spanking new.

Willing to negotiate!

BALL PARK FIGURE(HOW MUCH DID THEY COST)

 

WHAT SORT OF FIGURE ARE YOU LOOKING FOR ? MUST ADMIT i DONT KNOW HOW MUCH THEY ARE NEW

 

Saj on the BBS sells audio equipment and other car accessories. He has a STi V with Oz Gold Rally Spec Tarmac Replica Wheels in 17", I must admit they look the business, they are only available in gold and he gets them from Japan, he mentioned a figure of around £230 a corner

 

Thanks Aaron

Yes I do they are actually £215 + Vat I can do them for £205 inclusive.

Cheers

Saj

 

So is that £400 for the wheels and £420 for shipping then?

 

Saj

Do you have any pictures available. Please post on the BBS or email me if you do.

Regards in advance

You obviously know were to get them cheap maybe I should buy from you

 

Edited after I re-read this thread and realised my mistake!
-------------------
Saj - there was a previous thread on a similar topic - I actually got a little confused and thought this was the same one - cos I didn't read from the top!

Anyway just to explain where I was coming from - the STi website has a price of Y72000 for BBS wheels - which may be for 1 or 4 wheels? If 1 then thats £1600 for the wheels alone and your source is very cheap for a similar product. If 4 then thats £400 plus any 'extras' like local taxes, shipping etc.

I have no idea how much the 'extras' are (shipping expensive?), or an axe to grind - hence the in my first post.

So no more posts from me on this one - unless I'm in a position to buy some wheels I think!

Just to set the record straight I initially brought some over from Japan in turn I pissed the UK distributor off who now supplies me the wheels and thats were they would be coming from. These are the OZ Supertourismo Evolution in Gold made for the Impreza in Japan not Italy.
