Parker, every published photo I've seen of the car is with the standard 18" single-piece wheels. The optional 19" rims are 3-piece and I'm willing to bet they will have visible studs holding the outer and inner pieces together, similar to the 550 Barchetta. |

I'm really curious too:
This is from the Ferrari website:
In addition, a special 19" tyre (255/35 front and 305/30 rear) has been developed to equip the special-order split rims which offers more extreme handling characteristics, especially lateral and longitudinal grip, without sacrificing too much of the 575M Maranello's ride comfort.
"special order" sounds good. Wheel size has gone up too. |

I'm also curious to see what the other set of wheels look like. But I thought the stock one ARE 19-inchers. |

Does anyone happen to have pics of the two different types of wheels available for the 575M (the stock and 19-inch modular ones)? Every picture I have seen of the 575M shows the car with the same wheel and I like it, but I don't know which type it is! Thanks in advance. |
