OZ Alleggerita (Orange): Love/Hate?

Not the best pic, but wondering what everyone thinks of these orange Alleggeritas on graphite gray -- Love 'em or hate 'em?

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
For racecars = good stuff.
For street cars = poser.

I hear you, you gotta be comfortable wearing them. I'd rather put the $$$ into upgraded catback exh. and do some performance upgrades, but I've got another 2 years to run on my warranty. I probably won't last that long. I'd also like to go with a somewhat wider, more aggressive tire, I think these wheels can handle a range of 8-9.5" tires, which is ok for our oem 245/40/18's, but probably not wider.

I don't mind them at all......but then I have orange winters on my GG X so I'm likely a little biased.

robinsmark, any pics? links to pics? I'd love to see them. I'm still on the fence -- generally, I have kept my cars pretty low profile (no badges, etc) and then pumped the performance -- stealthy. In Long Island the troupers just love to pull you over. The other day I got pulled over from a local policeman parked on the right side of the road as I drove by -- he put on the blinkers on in the middle of town, pulled me over and then said he was sorry but he hadn't seen my front license plate (left-front mounted).

It's missing something. Just orange rims is lame...if it had a bit more, maybe I'd like it.

Like the wheels, but not sure I'd do that with a GG GSR. How far is the offset? Looks like you did not have to roll the fenders, which is a nice plus (IMHO, of course).
