    Those look like 360 modulars (but I think they are not genuine Ferrari... perhaps an aftermarket version). OE modulars are pretty 'available' at a decent price on eBay because many owners swap them for Stradale rims.

    They were sent straight to DC from Ferrari ads here on F-chat, and my friend said they came in the original Speedline boxes and the receipt is enclosed.
    How much are the 360 Modulars and obviously they fit because someone had them on thier car.
    Here are the ones I bought.

    Ah, those are something quite different from what I expected when you mentioned Speedlines.


    The 360 modulars are these:

    VVassallo may kill me, but maybe I ship them to him and have him buy me a set of 360 mods...

    The rim's in the OP look like ROH's to me. "ROH Modena" I think from memory.

    Them speedies are called Speedline Alessio Modulars.Used to be a popular fit for 348 owners wanting to upgrade their wheels to 18" and have seen them on 355s too.

    Would be spot on - thanks. Now I just have to find a set within my limited means. If anyone is selling a set of the ROH Modena please let me know, otherwise i may be keep the ones I have. I like them, I just like those ROH's a lot. I just found a company who sells them in PA.

    If they work, and assumedly they do as I have seen them on a 348 for sale now, I am going to buy them, so if that is the case, someone ask Vince Vassallo if he wants to buy the ones I just purchased :-O

    Thanks to our mate from NZ (JDM-NZ) and Tifosi66! Holy Cripes people know some sh#t about these cars on this site. You guys rock.

    Thanks Matt, the Modena's were available at the same time my rims were, for some reason they are still making the modena's and have discontinued my rims, I think the modena's are an excellent choice however I would darken out the colour of the centers and definitely go with 19's. The 348 you have pictured has the 18's on it and the extra inch makes all the difference........

    Our 348's have different size front and rear width wheels (I think 17x7.5 and 17x9) If I go with 19's what width should I get? Also, what about tire sizes?

    Enquiring now, but apparently all of these wheels are made down under, so this may price me out of this little game.

    Thanks,

    You are not going to like those wheels on your car dude. They are going to look like Hot Wheels cartoon tires. Too wide. 348's don't look so hot with 19's, IMO. What you have is great; keep them. I am fine with my 355 wheels, BTW, so peddle your habit somewhere else. :) I also do not care for 360 wheels on the 348 - slightly too modern looking for the body style. It's a case of Goldilocks logic - 348 wheels too old looking, 360 wheels too modern, 355 just right. :D

    Vince is the voice of reason when it comes to a good looking 348.:)

    I don't like the factory 360 Modena wheels, they are a bit too "new" looking. The good news is I have time to get back to DC and take a look at them. What I like about the ROH wheels (and the 355 wheels) is the longer arms going all the way to the edge of the wheels. The ones I bought make the wheel look a little smaller.

    Again, they aren't bad, and I may end up keeping and using them, but if I can find a pair of ROH's I will sell them on the cheap to Bee Jay...hey Bee Jay, you out there?

    I'm pretty sure the wheels you are looking for have been on ferrariads a bunch of time as "360 modular wheels" which are 18". ROH I think is aftermarket which explains why they make a 19". I agree with the others that 19" is going to look funky on 348's and with the potholes in our area, you are bound to get a dented wheel.

    see here this ad from may:

    http://www.ferrarichat.com/ferrariads/showproduct.php?product=1320&cat=all


    I want to remember they were something like $2500 without tires, $4K with tires which is pretty typical for our car unfortunately :( You might try to contact the seller if he has a lead on other sets, since I know he sold a bunch

    PS: If you want to see a 348 with plain 355 wheels, let me know, I live in DC. I think that is the best combo personally, but I'm biased :D

    POTXOLI Thanks for the help.

    If you look at the arms that reach out to the rims on the ones you linked to on Ads, you will notice they are not the same wheels. The ones on Ferrari Ads are split down the middle of the "arms" and have a thinner rim by just a bit.

    The ROH Modena's I like have what appears to have what could be described as an ice cream scoop out of each arm. Also, every wheel I see on the Ads right now is a 19", so if any 18's become available again, someone give me a holler.

    I did recieve an email from Speedline in the UK today telling me that the wheels I have were Top Flight and the best of thier day 15 years ago.

    Do 18 inch wheels cause any problems/rubbing on a 348?
