Apologies if this has come up before.
Can these fantastic wheels still be got of (presumably if one looks hard enough?)
OZ stopped production right?

Only available second hand, and can be either in poor condition requiring and expensive refurb...... or fin expensive.


If you want the OZ split rim look on a budget, the nearest I have seen are http://www.alloywheels.com/product.asp?P_ID=1883 Lenso BSX in silver, not a true split rim, but in keeping with the look.

If you're not on a budget then Compomotive CXN are a very good quality wheels but I am not sure they make them in a 16 inch size anymore

just been down this route, ended up buying a second hand set in reasonable nick, £350, took them to Zack at the split rim clinic, top guy and real enthusiast, completely stripped polished rim with painted centres and new polished stainless bolts and valves £740, very reasonable for the quality of finish, then got some khoumo road legal track tyres, £560,yikes total £1650
bloody expensive alltogether but in my eyes perfection is worth the money
