So my new Oz Leggera HLT's arrived today
Absolutely love them :thumb: They are a darker silver than I imagined from the pics on the Oz website, almost a graphite colour which is no bad thing as I had thought a darker colour might go well with my Midnight Blue bodywork!
The wheels look very well made and a nice finish! One annoyance is that the inside of the wheel is not as nicely finished as the outside, why do wheel manufacturers do this? Another annoyance is that the rears are ET65, not the ET50 I had ordered, so I will have to use my existing 15mm spacers so not too worried!
I thought I would see how much it would cost for a mobile fitter to fit my new Michelin PSS and swap the TPMS sensors over from the old wheels...£170 I was quoted So popped into a local tyre outfit that I have used before and they can do it for £80 - £85, bit more like it! Think I will bung then a few quid if they promise not to scrape my new rims :?: I just have to work out the logistics of getting all the wheels and tyres with the car to them and bring back my old wheels!!
I also got some Gtechniq C5 delivered today to give the wheels a coat before they go on, I only got the 15ml bottle thinking it would be enough to do all the wheels but according to the instructions it will only do the face of a set of 18" wheels! Anyone used C5? Is it worth the money?? If it will only do the front of the wheels, would cost £50+ to do them all over
