The best $ deal (I've seen) on the 16" 308QV reproductions is at: http://www.superformance.co.uk/cat_308.htm (under body then wheels) but other F-based companies resell them in the US also. For a (used) set of the magnesium 16" 308QV wheels, the best place to start is with the F discount parts suppliers/dismantlers (like T. Rutlands, Ferrari Parts Exchange, etc.).

Thanks for all your help guys, hopefully I can find some rims that work. I had the bbs 16" on the car and one rim separated and I have been running the stock 14" spare on that wheel. It looks like crap, and runs worse. Now the next million dollar question where can I find some at a decent price? |

Anthony -- The stock (magnesium alloy) 308QV 16" wheels and reproduction (aluminum alloy) 308QV 16" wheels should be on the list also (actually at the top of the list IMO). The stock 328 16" wheels that would work without spacers/adapters would be the non-ABS 328 16" version (328 ABS wheels have much larger "+" offsets). Mondial wheels also have fairly large "+" offsets so not easily usable on any 308. The "stock" 308QV wheel data ballpark you need to be in is: 5 x 108 mm diameter bolt circle 67 mm hub diameter +11 mm offset (both front and rear) 7" front width 8" rear width You can fudge the offsets (a few mm) and widths (maybe +1/2") a bit, but the numbers above define the basic available tire/wheel space. |

308 wheels is a gt4 vs gtb/s issue - there were factory 16 in wheels for the GTB which can foul if fitted to a GT4 - they are not the same as the 328 wheels - old ferrari racers tend to have lots of custom rims lying around - do not go for the 390 mm TRX rims |

Can anyone tell me if any other ferrari rims fit on a 308? I own one but don't know too much about it. I could really use some advice. I had a guy at a tire shop tell me my only options are stock 14", stock 328 16", or custom made. Is this true? |
