Awesome. I've been looking through this forum for days for a set of wheels that I like. I like these the best. There deep due to them being 17x8 and the center doesn't bulge out like many of the others in this style. I am curious whether or not these would rub with H-Sport springs. Anybody know?

They are quiet and what I consider a good all around touring tire with some performance genes. Not what I would pick for the track but I don't ever seem to get there so...Frankly I don't know why I kept my run flats for so long. Live and learn.

18x7 O.Z. Superleggera

Here are my new rims… I ruined the last set I owned, Moda (Tirerack) rims. I ran over a large pothole, the kind when your XM radio flies out, head hits the sun roof, glove box flies open and the coin tray in now the floor.

The picture is the 18x7 O.Z. Superleggera with Pirelli PZero Nero.

Yup that is 2 valves per wheel. My understanding is that is for nitrogen filling (I'm no expert on that, tho).

Here's another picture with a closer look:

Holy mackerel!!!
There's got to be so much rubbing you're liable to start a fire. Use lots of KY Jelly :smile: - the scented variety!
Seriously though. Do you get any rubbing? It looks like it's not lowered yet.
