I wouldnt go with them personally but they're not too bad. i suggest the 17" gunmetal color oz superleggeras, those would go good with the satin silver metallic paint;)

Id say go for it they look like nice rims, kinda like Gram Lights. Are you set on silver? I think gunmetal would look bad ass. :D

Yea, Those look like Gram Light knockoffs to me. I'd buy the real thing, they aren't that expensive.

I 100% agree with you, If I didn't have my rim set I would definitely buy superleggeras, those are sooo nice.

Attacks are such a nice wheel... fairly light and look great.

Gunmetal + Silver = http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gifhttp://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif

The superleggeras are the other rim i was considering! lol i love em. the price is right on the attacks. I saw the O.Z's on a black audi S4 the other day and wanted to cry. it was so beautiful.

Gunmetal is the only color im considering. not silver. Does anyone know of a respectable site that sells the superleggera for under 260 a rim, i searched the other nite but couldnt come up with anything cheaper.

If im not mistaken, hasnt there been a member here for a while with the OZ's? its silver too. they do look great only 15 lbs i believe.

so what about the tires?

Falken azenis or parada spec-2's? I like the paradas b/c they seem to work better in wet weather. azenis is more of a summer/track tire. thanks for the replies :D

If you go to www.directtire.com , you may find what you want. I think their price for the Superleggeras was 200 a piece, not the 3-piece wheel though. The have the superleggera corsas (all white) for 249 a piece. And the website can show you what they look like on your car. color and all. I would like to find the 3-piece supers for under 350.
