    Someone tell Hamann to STFU with their fake press release BS.

    Fit a new rim on a car and thats it ? Plus this rim style has been around for years.

    The good thing is that they dont butcher the car as Gemballa..

    If that's where the front plates are supposed to go, the 458 Italia's design will be ruined on European cars. :(

    Because it's bloody awful! This kind of cheap nastiness should only be done to things like Supras. Some people shouldn't be allowed to spend money unless they're supervised by an adult. :)

    The bottom ones are not the same, and are actually pretty cool. The top one is nasty.

    Why would someone buy such a gorgeous car and wreck it with those ugly wheels? I prefer stock.

    It's fascinating when the talentless and tasteless think they know better than than someone like Pininfarina.

    I think, along with many other F-chatters, that Novitec did enhance the looks of the California to look much more sharper. But only 1 of 10 of these after market companies do a good job... Hamann seem to always miss...

    In addition to prior comments, those rims look heavy. They probably add unsprung weight to the car.

    What the heck is the fascination with black wheels? :confused:

    Personal tastes aside, this seems a poor effort. :rolleyes:

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    The hell?

    Why didn't Hamann get kidnapped instead of Uwe Gemballa. :eek:

    Hamann just changes the wheels and calls it a day. I wish I could be a custom tuner like them, at least I would fit some proper looking wheels on it :D
