Anyone have experience with or opinions about OZ Racing wheels?

I was considering an 18" Formula HLT 5H for my non-lowered 2011 Journey sedan (no BBK).

They are a quality company, they have a few different lines from their forged top notch sets to their pressure cast lower priced line. The ones you linked are flow formed cast wheels so they are a step up from regular cell cast. These will be a bit lighter & stronger than a similar cell cast wheel. Would be a good choice for a daily driver, and the weight savings should be noticeable.
Do you have a width/offset picked out yet?

I was considering a conservative 18 x 7.5" with a 45mm offset and 6.10" backspacing. These are the wheel specs recommended by The Tire Rack.

BTW, thanks for the info.

I'd go a bit wider so you're not locked in to a narrow 225 width tire. If you can find a wheel you like in a 8.5 to 9" width and an offset of +35 to +40 I think you'd be much happier, and running a 245/45/18 tire is a better suited tire size for our 330 hp cars.

I'd also look at the TSW rotary forged line, here's a few in gunmetal, be sure to look for ones that say "Rotary Forged" these will be lighter and stronger than their base wheels~

My only problem with OZ is that there is not enough variation between the styles of wheels. But, strong, lightweight and racing pedigree...I like them overall. Your choice should look pretty good on the sedan. I imgaine, though, you are going to want to lower it after you get em on. LoL
