    I do agree they look awful, but if they are tasteful, then why not?

    The point; is to be different. Even though I highly doubt you'll pull up at a light next to another 458, it's just the owners customization, and what he/she likes.

    I don't know if you guys will agree with me or not, but they sort of look like the BMW M3 stock rims, but with more spokes. Just my personal opinion, don't like them on the 458 and as has been said many times, I like the stock and optional rims that Ferrari offers. To each his own though..

    I love aftermarket rims myself. Had em on all my past cars/suvs BUT I don't on my 430 and in Jan I won't on a 458. I think Ferrari puts enough into R&D that their rims suit the cars best. No aftermarket tire will make the car Better. Change the look yes. Better (especially performance) NO... IMO

    I have found that aftermarket wheels and exhausts on the 458 are a waste

    Although I love my 997 Turbo tuned to 650HP with HRE P40 Rims...GIAC Tuned ECU... I have lost my confidence in the car and I am not sure if the mod has messed up the dynamics of the car...
    I will be doing ZERO mods in my 458....

    Yes.. The Turbo is a absolute beast and a Cab .... it feels like a motorcycle when the top is down and the Torque is immense...
    The 458 is another story... stealthy and composed...
    Enjoy the picture..

    Thank you. Not a fan of 'red' Ferraris but that is absolutely lovely. Lots of depth.

    That red white is a pretty combo. Even makes that SLS look good but you have to be some kind of masochist to have a white interior. I'm guessing this comes with it to wear while driving.

    Do you have any pics of a triple black 458? Black exterior/interior/wheels?

    Wouldn't it be nice if this thread was restricted to subscribers? Who can be bothered chasing links to a hundred pics? Please post pics, not links.

    Wouldn't it be nice if we could all have money to subscribe? Some of us are college students who are just trying to share a passion. Due to some stupid restriction that wont let me delete pictures that I posted forever ago that are no longer being looked at, I can no longer post pictures unless I subscribe. I'm not paying money just to post a few pictures once in a while. Click the links and chill out.


    Anyways, best angle on the 458 by far. Not a huge fan of the post processing but this is the first i've seen from this angle and i love it.
