The Tire Rack Introduces the OZ Alleggerita

damon@tirerack.com · 02-06-2009, 10:39 AM

As the exclusive US importer for OZ Italy, The Tire Rack is proud to introduce the OZ Alleggerita. Anxiously awaited, this wheel fills many of the performance street and race application voids previously found without spending twice the money. These are low pressure cast and heat treated for strength and carry OZ's reputation for excellence even further. Many sizes are in stock, with Porsche-specific sizing arriving soon. Actual weights are yet to be given to us by OZ in Porsche sizing, but were targeted to be approx. 10% less than the Ultraleggera HLT wheel, and MUCH lighter than OE wheels. Real Carbon Fiber center caps will come with all wheels. Priced in the $4-500 range, these wheels will rival in weight forged wheels over twice the price. Presently available for Porsche in the 18 x 8 - 12" range at this time. With many colors to choose from, expect inventory arriving in early spring. As always, more information will be provided as it arrives.

Get your pre-orders in early! We will not bill you until they arrive and ship. We also carry the full range of Michelin, Kumho, and Hoosier race tires to add to the wheels at no charge for mount and balance. Full heat cycling service also available.

If there is anything I can answer in the meantime please contact me. And, as with any product we carry, please contact me direct to order or use the banner button.

I'm looking for 17" Wheels for my 964. I'd be interested in these in 17". I'm also wondering why you know longer have the Cup 1 replicas?

Damon, what are the weights for:

8x18 and 12x18

How do these compare to forged wheels Like the Volks or CCW for track use with my 2009 Carrera S?

Sorry, like it says, we are still awaiting final weights from OZ. Will have soon.

Damon, can you specify offsets or do they come "as is" already pre-etablished based on widths?

LVDell · 02-16-2009, 02:44 PM

Damon? Can you answer the offset and width question?

Neither your website nor OZ have what options there are for widths and offsets. Please post back.

Not for what car but what is available in the 5-130 bolt pattern for Porsche's. In the 18" wheel it just has from 8"-12" widths. I need to know if you can specify the offsets as the customer or does each width available already come in a predetermined offset? If the offsets are already established can you please post what is available from 8-12"? Thanks Damon!

Will the wheels fit on the '88 951? I am concerned about the size of the hub compared to the 911. Any new news on delivery date? I have two sets on order with you now.
