Captain Mike,
The comps are 8.5, at least in the most common tire
rack fitment for our bolt pattern, I'm sure custom
width/offset can be ordered.  Yes, they cost a bit
more, but they are SSF forged and the superleggeras
AFAIK are cast, but still light.  Also of note, has
anyone SEEN what they want for the superleggera III?
As Frank would say: YOWZA!

:-)
