I just got back from the yellow brick road today and I brought the WIZARD of OZ back with me!


:drool: 18" OZ Superleggeras in race silver. These are in near PERFECT condition.

I have the 18" Enkei GF-1s in anthracite on the car & trailer right now.

I also have the 17" Focus SVT 5 spoke chrome wheels with new tires. Here is a photochop bildo did for me.

The plan was to sell the GF-1s and mount the chrome Focus SVT wheels with 5mm spacers. Eventually getting the other 2 chrome Focus SVT wheels for the trailer too. No big deal, right?

I had the plan, but a deal came up that I couldn't pass on. That was the OZ Superleggeras.

I don't like black wheels that much so it was a easy choice to move onto the focus rims, but the problem is that I LOVE the OZs but there is no way to find 2 more to put on the trailer to match :nonono:. If I put the OZs on the car, what goes on the trailer?


Basically, I have too many good wheels to choose from and I need help. The GF-1s will 75% sure be coming off the car, but what do I put back on?

Any input will help make a decision. Thanks.
 
send me the OZ wheels for a good deal and take that out of the equation. then go with the Focus wheels as planned if you don't want a dark wheel.
 
I might be sending you a PM later tonight. I have 6 18" Superleggeras if you're interested in working something out.

Either way, my vote is for the Superleggera's. I'm not a fan of your black wheels, and I do love chrome FSVT wheels, but I like the Superleggera's over the FSVT.
 
I would definitely go with the Superleggera's. And just ship the GF-1's to me, jk. Back on subject, I think the Superleggera's would look the best of all 3. But that's my opinion.
 
like i've said in another thread about your car, the enkei's maintain the overall custom look. i think it'll lose that when you slap on a solid color/finish wheel. I easily overlook the extra lug holes because of this and I think it looks even better from a distance with them..
 
Disagree. I think the anthracite GF-1's look best with that color of Contour. They complement it, and don't stand out.
 
I like the GF-1's but if you're looking for a change you should go with the Superleggera's. I would be interested in the Chrome FSVT wheels ;) lol
 
Centerlines aren't in the selection! :laugh:

I don't like those wheels anyway ;)

That's a really tough choice...I think you would have a problem finding more chrome focus svts too...
Click to expand...

^ true, but atleast I can get more focus svt silver wheels and just blast and powder coat them chrome. It would be close enough for me until maybe finding another 2 real chrome ones......
 
I don't want to "buy" anything else! I need to decide and UNLOAD some of these :crazy:.
 
As much I like changing wheels Joe I voted for your usual wheels for sure! They just look "right" on the car IMO. BTW, did you get my PM about taking care of your car?

At 35 bucks a piece you can paint them any color you want.

I would go with the FSVT wheels myself
