    Not much of value here, just wanted to say I've been drooling over pictures of gold BBS wheels on red 355's.

    I do like the stock wheels but they are tucked in a bit too much. I could do wheel spacers I suppose but may just end up going with the BBS (or similar).

    The first photo above of the Berlinetta wearing all gold rims are BBS LM the others I am not sure of the model number.

    The gold works quite well with red, not so much on other colors...maybe with Nero....

    I agree - they look very good with red, and likely would also with Nero.

    I'll always prefer a grey matte finish wheel over chrome or anything else, but I do have to say -- the red/gold 355 does not offend me one bit. Not so sure I'd do it, but I do like it.

    Just looked those up. They look really nice and very similar to the BBS except the outer barrel has no step in it.

    Is it me, or does an F355 with aftermarket wheels look like a V8 Turbo Esprit?

    Love the look, but it does lose much of its identity.

    I love how low that 355 sits! I would like to lower my 348 spider like that but I'm afraid I'd tear something up. I like the black chrome look.:D

    Can somebody photoshop these wheels on a red spyder? How would they look on a black car, anybody who can do that?

    Thanks!

    No not at all. One of the best looking wheels ever are those fitted to a 355, BBS's look very 80's.
    If you must then it has to be silver, gold is for Subaru Impreza's.

    Gold looks good, but the Black chrome is stunning!
