blitzen4me Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 I've had my LGT for about 3 years now and I'm finally going to get some new wheels. I've check out Tirerack and have found a set of OZ wheels I like...but then I found these on another website.... Blitz BRW 18x8 5x100 Black Matt Blue http://us.st12.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/fastwrx_2014_119703727 Anybody have experience with this brand of rims? or this model imparticular?
Hanger Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 You can never go wrong with Blitz ○ ○ ○ Instagram: itshangertime :spin: ○ ○ ○
LowFast Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 They are awesome wheels but really heavy, somewhere in the 23-25lb range for 18's
blitzen4me Posted September 9, 2008 Author Posted September 9, 2008 They are awesome wheels but really heavy, somewhere in the 23-25lb range for 18's Thanks! No wonder I wasn't able to find the weight on any of the websites. Can you tell me where you found the weight? Thanks!
blitzen4me Posted September 9, 2008 Author Posted September 9, 2008 The OZ rims I was thinking of are the OZ Ultraleggera in either silver or matte black. They are approximately 17lbs but costs about $80/wheel more. What are your thoughts?
Jim_KT Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 If I hadn't picked up my PFF7s, I would have purchased a set of the Ultraleggeras. Love the look.
RobE Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Go with the OZs. http://newenglandsubarus.com/
blitzen4me Posted September 10, 2008 Author Posted September 10, 2008 thanks for the replies...will ponder for a little longer...leaning towards the OZ for the more elegant look and weight.
LowFast Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Not sure the color of your ride but I dream about the OZ's in matte black.
Nickz31se-r Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 I have always loved the Ultras in the matt black, however I nearly pulled the trigger on the BRW until i saw the weight, I can't justify the price tag with lack of performance
aussie_coyote Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 These are about 20% lighter than the BRW, but very similar style. http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/files/files_variation/0.50511200%201180349904_121.jpg?PHPSESSID=323pahvig4hj5p2umls9gb3siljsv065
blitzen4me Posted September 12, 2008 Author Posted September 12, 2008 Would love the WORKS but they are beyond my budget right now.
uberwagon Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 if i hadn't picked up my pff7s, i would have purchased a set of the ultraleggeras. Love the look. +1

Blitz BRW 18x8 5x100 Black Matt Blue Anybody have experience with this brand of rims? or this model imparticular? Oooh...those are damn nice lookin'. Where did you find them? I'm thinking their weight has got to be in the ballpark of what a stock OBXT 17" rim weighs. Have you run across any pics of these on an LGT or OB? Tim
Mach V Dan Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 We carry the Blitz BRW wheels. They are pretty heavy, but lots of stock rims are heavy too. I don't have pics on a Legacy/Outback, but here's one on an STI: http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y249/danhurwitz/Products/Wheels/Blitz/IMPREZA_GDB-F_08BMB.gif Somewhere I have another pic of them on a blue WRX. I'll have to dig it up. --Dan Mach V FastWRX.com
GTkansan Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 These are wonderful wheels. only 17.5 lbs at 18x7.5
GTkansan Posted September 21, 2008 Posted September 21, 2008 I'm selling some I got at a mega discount. Set of 4. Never mounted. Make me an offer.
