    A little back story, I remember the first time I saw these BBS FI wheels on the Atlantis Blue M3 by iND at the Bimmerfest. These are also the OEM wheels on one of my favorite Ferraris, the 599 GTO so when I had the chance to get these wheels, I literally jumped! I was able to source one of the first titanium colored wheels in the states directly from BBS. I should also point out that these are not exactly the same wheels as the 599 GTO because of the size differences at 20" wheels for that car.

    Some specs about these wheels are:
    Front: 19" x 8.75" and 19 lbs
    Rear: 19" x 11.25" and 21 lbs

    Compare that to the stock wheels at:
    Front: 19" x 8" and 25 lbs
    Rear: 19" x 10" and 28 lbs

    As you can see, it's actually larger than stock but yet they're significantly lighter and it's incredible how BBS has managed to come up with wheels like these. That's a weight savings of 26 lbs. Motoring Unlimited, a local tuner shop did a great job carefully installing these wheels onto my Scuderia. I can't say enough how much I appreciated their work.

    Great look for the scud! Also nice reduction of 26 lbs of unsprung weight. Some would say that's 260 lbs of chassis weight...

    Awesome !!!!

    I have a set of 19x9.5 and 19x11.5 HRE C20 Competition and they are a lot lighter than the stock narrower wheels, but not this light and not this pretty, and about the same price new.

    Thanks so much Atomic. These wheels will work with any F430 as well (Spider, 16M and Coupe).
