I'm looking for a way to fit the OZ wheels range but can't find enough information- I found the thread with all kinds of measures but can't find any wheel models that match the description. Is there any way to fit the OZ Superturismo/-leggera wheels or something similar?

Thanks for the pics but aren't there are some more mods to the Standard Ultima brakes ;-)

Would that also work with the OZ Superturismo? Do you always need adapters to fit other wheels?

yes there are, Brembo 8-pot clipers with 365mm rotors, but basically this is a different topic as long as the brakes fit under the alloys.
The factory AP setup has 320mm rotors, which normally will not present any problems with different wheels, as there is plenty of room left under 18" alloys.

if you intend using wheels from a manufacturer, which doesn't support the "quite uncommon" Ultima/Ford PCD for the desired rim dimensions, the way to go is: fit adaptors or choose different wheels.

Hi Cooberpedy - did you have to remove the existing lugs from the hubs in order to fit the adaptors?

Many thanks.

Just the PCD adapters - I can't see how they fit over the standard wheel nut lugs based on the picture.

Many thanks again.

May I ask how expensive the adapters were to make? And are wheels a cheaper option

Well, in the end it comes out equal.
But now i have the chance to have all kind of porsche wheels or at least aftermarket wheels with prosche pcd. This is quite an advantage if you plan to have more than one set of wheels for track and road...
