Jim, I was looking at one of our local cars that had just installed a set of OZ Superleggera 18" wheels with S03's and it looked to me like they didn't fit the way that I want them to fit. In order for them to fit like the stock wheels/tires, they would need to be set in towards the car by about 1/2" or so. His tires were just about flush with the fender or sticking out by about 1/4".

Is it possible to get these wheels ordered to fit the same way that the stock wheels fit?

Thanks,
Bob

I hope mine fit OK. I do have -1.6/-1.9 rear camber, and the car is lowered. Hope they fit ok. They are scheduled to arrive this week. I will post pics. If they don't fit the way I want them, I'm going to send them back. Some owners have had no problems with them at all, while some rub all the time. I think it depends on if you are is lowered and how agressive the alignment is.

I have OZ Superleggeras with SO-3's:
Front: 18x7 with +45mm offset (flush with fender; does not stick out past the fender) and 225/40/18's

Rear: 18x9 with +55mm offset (flush with fender; does not stick out past the fender) and 255/35/18's

Love the look; love the handling!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

I have same setup as Bruce, I'm not sure about the offset though. But no rubbing or other problems seen in the last year while they have been on the car. And I had my car on the track (n

S03 tires run about one size larger.. i.e. 215 SO3s look like 225 S02s
