OZ racing is proud to announce the brand new Formula HLT for 2013. OZ's High Light Technology (HLT) process uses rollers to compress and elongate the material along the barrel of a low-pressure cast aluminum wheel to obtain the desired profile. This process, which is directly derived from O.Z.'s experience in F1, produces wheels that are extremely light and strong. The flow forming process and the HLT technologies combine to create mechanical characteristics similar to those of a forged wheel. This permits a dramatic reduction in wheel weight while enhancing structural rigidity vs. a standard cast wheel.

Exact fitments and pricing is upcoming, but we expect a wide range of 5-bolt sizes and applications similar to the very popular Ultraleggera and Alleggerita.

 

I was getting ready to order the alleg hlt SE's and now this....is the price range going to be similar? Whats the estimate time on these?

 

Subscribed....can't wait to see real pictures of these!

 

You'll know when I do, promise!

 

Any special deals for 6speed members?

Thanks

waiting your PM reply

 

We are pleased to announce that the New OZ Formula HLT has now been released and is available on our site for pre-order. This new wheel is in the same family as the OZ Ultraleggera HLT and Alleggerita HLT and provides a unique look with its simulated Center Lock appearance. Like the Ultraleggera HLT and Alleggerita HLT it is made in Italy with OZ’s HLT (high light technology) processes. Because the wheel is flow-formed it will be available in a wide range of sizes and fitments. This wheel will primarily be featured with the center lock look cover plate covering the lugs, and a second cap that covers the hub but keeps the lugs exposed.

At his time available Porsche fitments will be:

19X8.5 5-130 ET53 OZ FORM HLT 459.00

19X11 5-130 ET50 519.00
19X11 5-130 ET65 519.00
19X11 5-130 ET40 519.00

19X12 5-130 ET51 545.00
19X12 5-130 ET68 545.00

Also available:

Staggered sizes for BMW
17x9 for Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S
Subaru

The wheels are on order now with ETA hopefully in the next 6-8 weeks. I will certainly post updates as I get them from OZ.

 

 

Will there be 18" available for porsche fitment?

Very interested, but would love to run 18 instead of 19 for 996tt

 

I thought I'd scan here for these wheels. They should look awesome against an S or turbo with the red calipers. Expect they will weigh about the same as the others, but be nicer with the uniform spokes. Just hoping the centerlock cap is not too "rice" an addition. Pass on any pics or special 6speed pricing.

 

I think we'll find that the Porsche crowd will keep the centerlock cap, and people driving other cars will run the standard cap. Time will tell. Pricing is above.
