DescriptionThe whole story▼
OZ Racing has built its reputation on wheels that meet the most demanding certification and quality standards in motorsport, and the GP Replica GP-8R front wheel carries that heritage directly to your Aprilia RSV4. Engineered for riders who refuse to compromise on safety or performance at the front axle, this 17" x 3.50" aluminium wheel delivers a measurable reduction in unsprung and rotating mass exactly where it matters most — improving steering response, braking precision and cornering confidence on both road and track.
Key Features
- Certified OZ Racing aluminium construction, manufactured to the exacting quality standards that underpin OZ's FIM homologation programmes across road and circuit applications
- Reduced rotating mass at the front axle for sharper turn-in, more direct steering feel and improved braking feedback on the Aprilia RSV4
- GP-8R race-replica spoke design — the same motorsport aesthetic carried across OZ's top-tier wheel programme
- Five anodised finish options allow precise colour-matching to your RSV4's livery, brake caliper or existing rear wheel
- Fitment-specific bushings and spacers included for a precise, hassle-free installation on 2009–2016 RSV4 models
- Compact 90-degree aluminium valve stem included, saving clearance in tight wheel-arch environments
Safety, Construction and OZ Racing Credentials
When specifying a replacement or upgrade front wheel, safety certification is the non-negotiable starting point. OZ Racing applies rigorous in-house engineering controls and subjects its motorcycle wheels to multi-stage quality inspection before release — the same discipline that has made OZ wheels the choice of factory MotoGP and Superbike teams for decades. The GP Replica GP-8R is manufactured from aerospace-grade aluminium alloy, giving the wheel the structural integrity to cope with the lateral and radial loads generated by a high-performance superbike under hard braking and at steep lean angles.
The anodised finish is not merely cosmetic. Anodising integrates into the aluminium surface at a molecular level, providing far superior corrosion resistance and surface hardness compared to paint or lacquer — an important consideration for a component exposed to brake dust, road grit and track debris over its service life.
Performance on Road and Track
The front wheel is one of the highest-impact components on any sportsbike in terms of handling feel. By reducing the rotating inertia at the front, the GP-8R allows the Aprilia RSV4 to respond more keenly to steering inputs, makes direction changes feel lighter through fast chicanes, and sharpens the feedback channel between tyre contact patch and rider. Riders who have used trackday sessions or canyon roads to explore the RSV4's limits will notice the difference immediately when switching from a heavier stock wheel.
Whether you are building a dedicated track machine, upgrading incrementally with premium OZ components, or simply replacing a damaged front wheel with something that outperforms the original fitment, the GP-8R is a purposeful upgrade rather than a cosmetic one.
Available Finishes
The GP Replica GP-8R front wheel is available in five anodised finishes, allowing you to specify the exact look that works with your RSV4's colour scheme, carbon fibre components or brake system:
- Gloss Black anodised
- Techno Black anodised
- Techno Gold anodised
- Titanium anodised
- Gloss Gold anodised
Each finish is applied as a true anodised coating — not painted — ensuring long-term durability and consistent appearance across the full service life of the wheel.

- Aprilia RSV4 (2009–2016)
