My F360 on 20's !!

I've never posted any pics on here before, here's a pic of my recently fitted 20' inch alloys. I currently have 360GT carbon mirrors and 360cs skirts fitted. I am fitting the 360cs bumpers next week so will update pics when I have them.

Looks great!

 

Thanks! Cannot wait for my 360cs parts. I'm fitting the rear engine lid too with the nulder in. Still undecided about the stripe? Should I or shouldn't I?

 

I think your 360 looks great! My thought is though, if it was not a Stradale to begin with, I wouldn't make it into one. I would make it unique and your own. I think the wheels look great.

I just wouldn't want to spend tons of money on CS parts knowing it wasn't a CS to start. That's just me...

This is a drastic analogy, but I compare it to some of those Chrysler 300 cars that are fitted with Bentley or Rolls Royce Grilles. It will never be a RR or Bentley so save the money.

I am in the same spot; I have a non-CS 360. I just ordered some aftermarket wheels on it. I'm looking for an exhaust. If I do any aftermarket body, I would look into Hamann, Novitech, Fabulous, etc. I may as well make it different than all the 360s out on the road.

By the way, what kind of wheels are those?...just curious

Have fun...

 

First off, the wheels look fabulous. Nice choice. As for the thought of converting your non-Stradale into a Stradle look, I suggest you think about your impression of guys who wear the knock off watches...or better yet, ever see a guy who puts the Porsche turbo tail on a regular C2....


TOOL.


Being a bit sarcasm but I think your 360 looks great as a 360!

Before anyone asks, tyre & wheel dimensions

Rears : 11.0 wide x 20 inch 285/30/20 ET30
Fronts : 8.5 wide x 20 inch 245/30/20 ET24

 

Yep, I know what your saying, I was thinking of 2 thick white stripes with a space between them (i.e. NOT a stradale one) but the ones worn by the 360's in the GT-C racing series.

 

They are Trafficmaster STM's custom made to order for the 360..

 

20 x 11 in the rear, nice! That is what I ordered as well. But 19 x8.5 in front.

Could you have got a wider tire than the 285 in the rear? I think my guy at the shop is ordering 305 or 315 for the rear.

 

Regarding the cs stuff. I'm just using the best bits. I.e. I'm actually fitting a aftermarket carbon fibre rear diffuser with 3M anti chip film fitted (i.e. better than the stradales version). Also the reason I'm fitting the stradale bumpers (as well as having fitted the 360cs skirts) is primarily for the aerodynamic benefits but your right. No point in making a replica!!!

I'll have to wait and see if I really do decide to fit the supercharger kit, 600hp sounds interesting to say the least! Even with 285's at the back it will be interesting to unleash it on the open road

 

Yes! Next time I order a new set of rear's I'm going for 305's... BTW: Compared to the stock levels of grip this is on an all new level of awsome! I also noticed I've got rid of the horrible understeer during hard cornering. In the dry it sticks to the road like its on rails. I just love it!

 

Do you have a challenge rear grille?

 

Yes, I have the rear grille. Its basically a must in cold weather otherwise the rear window mists up on starting.

Also have a Capristo Racing system fitted. Its just superb sounding...

I say make it however you like it. If you think the strip looks good, by all means do it. When I mod a car I just make sure i keep all of the stock pieces so that when it comes time to sell i can off the car stock and then sell the other pieces apart from it if the new owner doesn't want them.

I'm hoping one day to own a 360, and I've wanted to do the challenge rear grill, front bumper, stripe and wheels. I just think it's the perfect look for the car and I don't care what anyone else thinks. We all can't be well off enough to afford a legit CS.

 

Well lets not forget this is how Ferrari started out. You bought the engine and got the bodywork for free. You also bespoked everything you wanted exactly how you liked it (the same went for Bently and Aston Martin). Now its only Rolls Royce and Maybach that seem to follow this approach. I personally hate keeping my car factory standard.

The worst feeling in the world for me would be to park next to someone with an identical car - discovering which 'clone' car is yours by looking at the plate

 

Nice wheels. Is that Satin finish on the wheels? Is your car lowered?

 

I'm a brit, I think the CS looks cool but I couldnt own an 'automatic' ferrari, even if its auto box is called an 'f1' (no offence intended). I am a luddite and just love the whole 'manual shifting thing'. I'm basically making my own 360cs manual plus having a heck of a lot of fun in the process !

 

Wheels are satin finished. Regarding lowring, a few ppl have asked this question. No, its factory stock at the moment.

 

I think it looks great.
Customize away!

 

that is exactly what i'd like to do in the next five years if i can save enough....

 

thanx, I prefer 'bespoke' away.

 

go for it and live the dream... What I can say is that you'll die with a smile on your face if you go for it!

 

Save your money and buy a CS.

 

What is the CS specific ?rear engine lid with the nulder"? I'm still trying to learn the specific difference between regular modenas and CS's.

 

i just put 19's HRE all around
not too happy with the way the car drives
if i pull a full u turn they start hopping.
they look unreal i love the look
But do i sacrifice looks for performance.
