Any O.Z. Leggenda's out there??

So I'm getting kinda tired of the black rims on my JCW and I kinda like the look of the white, the only thing is I have noting on the car to tie the white in. Red/Red roof, black striping....I really Like gold as wheel but haven't found any I've fell in love with that the finance committee will sign off on $$$ that is (wife).

Not even sure if I'm going to change them, just looking for something a little different. I'm on the fence they are cool in theory just not sure how they are in reality.

SO basically just looking to see if anyone out there has them on their car and can post a picture of them.

Thanks!

My nephew pointed these wheels out to me and at first I wasn't sure if they'd look good on a MINI. I've since changed my mind and think they'd look great instead of just...good. They're on my ever lengthening list of aftermarket wheels to consider. I like them in black or white and think in white they look give a definite "rally" feel to the car.

You can get Allegrittas in Red. Also I have a set in white that I am willing to part with. They have realatively new tires on them(<2k miles).

Please do! I think I've only seen one MINI wearing Leggenda's. Not sure why. I think they look killer.

Think the white wheels would work on a black roofed car?

Sorry to bring back an old thread, but I came across this when I was looking for wheels myself. I ended up pulling the trigger on the Leggendas for my 2009 Clubman S. They looks great and even at 18lb per wheel are lighter than the stock wheels (I would be lying if I said I felt a difference).

Here is a random assortment of photos. Still waiting on a friend to send me some additional side shots that would really show off the wheels. Still loving the wheels, I've yet to see another car with them in person.

Cheers! Can't wait to see more. I do love the proportions that the wheel has combined with the chunky looks of the mini. And it gives it a bit of motorsport/rally cred to the whole aesthetic. I have a red Clubman on order and was thinking about white wheels.

To anyone who has the OZ Leggenda's in a 17" or anyone who knows about wheel fitment....

I will be buying these wheels with a set of 205/45/17 tires. They are 17x7 with a 42mm offset and 5.63 backspacing. I currently have the standard R56 brakes, but I will be upgrading to either the JCW or some other aftermarket bbk.

Is there any bbk that I should stay away from due to fitment issues with this wheel? I am trying my hardest to avoid the use of spacers unless absolutely necessary.

I was only able to find one MINI running these wheels with the JCW brakes and he was using 5mm spacers up front. Don't know if they were a necessity or just for looks.

Any help would be much appreciated....thanks
