Default Gary, questions about OZ wheels....

1. Do OZ wheels come with hub-centering rings from OZ when ordered?

2. Do you know the weight for the OZ Classe in 18"?

3. I noticed that the weight for the OZ Superleggara III in both 18" and 19" fitments is listed as 24.7lbs...is this true?

4. Is it true that OZ offers a Free Road Hazard Warranty? Another retailer claims that if a wheel is damaged, OZ will replace it free for a 50% Discount off of list price...no Questions asked! Have you heard of this?

Thanks!

1. Yes, we include them at no charge.

2. We have no acutal weight on those yet, but OZ 'estimates' them at 24-25lbs.

3. 19X8 ET 30 24.7 lbs
19X8.5 ET 32 25.5 lbs
18X8.5 ET 32 24.7 lbs these sounds right to me.

4. Wow, I've not heard of this, sounds fantastic if its true. (Almost too good to be true...)<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/wheels/index.jsp">wheels</a></li></ul>

Default Interesting...

I don't directly deal with warranty issues &lt;have a warranty dept that handles them&gt;, so its entirely possible this exsists and I don't even know about it! I'll do some digging...

Default more on #4.

My warranty dept said they would need to check w/ OZ for details, but that it is 50% off OZ's LIST price &lt; much higher than our price or most dealer pricing&gt;... unsure what other catches there are.

Default Hmmm, interesting...

I called OZ in Miami and was told 26.5 lbs for the 18" Classe, and 19 lbs for the 18" OZ Superleggera III.
