Does anybody have any experience of these wheels for use on a Griff?

I'm moving to 17s all round and these are one of the few wheels that I can get in the correct 7J ET25 and 8J ET37 width and offsets. I'm not having much luck sourcing my first choice, the O.Z. Ultraleggera in graphite.

I'm looking for a performance upgrade before a visual one and whilst I know they're very light and supposedly specified for track use does that mean they won't stand up so well to potholed country roads?





Cheers

I also have those as a possibility to put slicks on. Compmotive said they would be OK for competition use, in fact the recommended them over the MO so I would think they would stand up to road use. From what I can see the only other options that will fit are the Compmotive MO and the Rimstock Pro Race 1.2.

Cosmetically I think the Rimstocks look better.

I saw the Rimstocks in the metal today and wasn't so impressed. A bit too shiny a finish they didn't look that "classy" ... whatever that means. They'd be a good choice for a competition wheel though I'm sure.

Still trying to chase up option 1 via Wheelmania in Birmingham:

We can offer the SP12s in a satin anthracite finish (very classy) as special order - about 4 weeks. 7x17 at the front 8x18 at the back (and the correct offset - 8x17 et37 is not quite right).
