According to Tirerack, the Superleggeras only come in 17" and 18" sizes that fit the Type R.

I'd take the O.Z. I conveniently have a set for sale. (see signature link) The 17x7" Superleggera weighs the same as the 16x7" K1s... 15.4lbs

Peter - is this for your R? Have you bought it yet?

I have the K-1s painted black on my R in 15". I love em but the OZs look real sweet...but I dont know how it would look on an R, I have only seen them on VWs.

Check this thread out-- the ITR in it has 17s though.

I am getting 15" OZs for my GS-R soon. I like the look more than Kosei, and they are a little lighter too (10.7lbs in 15", instead of ~13).

I have seen a PY ITR around here that also had flat-black painted K1s, they look nice too

Any word on whether or not you would be willing to ship these yet? I would be interested if you shipped. Obviously, since I live in AZ.

I'm in this same situation, however I'm also looking at the Rota C-8's... Also keep in mind the K-1's are a 16x7.5 wheel...

I like the look of the 17" Superlegra, however I'd be afraid with all those fat spokes that it would look crowded in a 16" version... Just a thought...

I like the OZ, and I think it would look great on an integra.

On your green LS, the OZ supperleggerras would look sweet.

For some stupid reason, I think the K1's are one of the best looking rims out there.

K1's are in my ITR's future.
