what do you think of this wheel?

I am very upset as my tire pressure sensors won't fit my renntech wheels. Now I may have to sell my wheels and get something else. I am just looking at all forged lightweight wheels. What do you guys think of this one? it is very high quality and shows off/cools the brakes well. Its the stock wheel on the kickass AMG CLK-DTM. And very different than the traditional 5/6 spoke.

Thanks.
Size?
Weight?
Price?

To be honest, I don't like the rims on the CLK-DTM, but the OZ's you posted look very different (probably just the angle) and look very hot.

I say, if they are 'better' than the HRE Compeititon series, get it.

About 25 pounds. $900 each through the tire rack. Forged centers, spun rims, T6 alu. Titanium fasteners.

I may be wrong on the DTM thing, but they look a lot alike. I thought they are the same.

I knew those rims looked way too familair.

O.Z. Superleggera III!

I say go for them, 19x8.5F and 19x10R.
At 25.5lbF and 27lbR at that price, it'll be hard to be beat!

Checked into it. RS-GT is 21-22 lbs. But they don't make the right offsets.

I think the OZ rims look very good on a sports/race car, but you have a big luxury GT with so much body surface, therefore it might make your car look a bit top heavy. If weight is a concern to you, then you should get them. Plus they show off cool breaks like you said, and they are certainly not gonna make your car like bad. If I had the money, I would go with Lorinser RS8, because they look really cool as they spin.
