Of the 39 races in total played OZ has won 23 and has more than 60 podiums finishes.
-
Forged magnesium reduces weight compared to forged aluminum wheels and even some carbon fiber wheels, which decreases the moment of inertia resulting quicker acceleration and braking, lowers un-sprung weight and gyroscopic effect to provide quicker turn-in and more positive handling.
- FEM (finite element method) designed to minimize weight and increase strength and rigidity.
- Specially treated billet magnesium alloy is bi-directionally forged, resulting in a more uniform and stronger metal structure.
- Heat treating, shot peening and CNC finishing are done in house resulting in an extremely lightweight and rigid wheel.
-
OZ wheels are AMA homologated for racing and also used in World Super Bike, MotoGP 125, Moto2, British Super Bike, IDM German Superbike and Bol d'Or 24-hour endurance racing.
- Included parts: bearings, valve stems, axle spacers (as applicable) and sprocket adaptor.
