19's changed my F355.

19s are where its at, gorgeous car.

 

That looks badass Eric! whats the tire-dimension front and rear? and how wide rims?

 

Nice!!! Very very nice!

 

Awesome.

 

i wish they made the factory 355 wheels in 19"
I think the 355 wheels are the best ferrari wheels ever!

 

If you don´t have a challenge grill to match up those rims you need to get one =)

 

Stunning

 

+1 . Sometimes i feel like the only person alive who does not like black wheels. Polished lip - yes , all black , for me , no
I do like that style wheel tho, would look awesome polished lip w/ silver centers.

WOW! That looks amazing! Thanks for the post, it might be expensive to me! Ha!

 

Care to share info on the wheels and tires? I promise I probably don't live close to you! Ha!

 

Typically I'm not a huge fan of black wheels on any car, but I must say: those look dam good on your car, especially with the carbon shields. It's gotta look killer from a rear-side view with the black challenge grill!

Well done, Eric

 

The new owner of my white GTS just sent me pictures. He painted the stock wheels black. Actually looks pretty good!

 

Where is the proof?

 

I'm with you - growing up in the 60s, the American cars had black wheels if you couldn't afford hub caps. In the 70s, it was base model black wheels, maybe with trim rings or hub caps, then the (silver) alloy wheels were the upmarket or performance wheels. In the 80s and 90s, even if you had (silver) alloy wheels for summer, the move to separate wheels for separate winter tires meant many people ran cheap black steel wheels for winter tires.

In all cases, black wheels has signified the cheap basic wheels, all my life! I just can't find them attractive.

 

I have to say, to each his own, but I'm a fan of stock wheels. Plus, I think the silver wheels really accented the color of your car.

 

How has it impacted your driving experience with the car?

 

The black wheels look terrible on that car. One mans opinion.

 

Bob, don't be shy. Tell us what you really think.

 

It's all subjective but to me they look like four of the spares they put in the trunks of new cars. The car is way to beautiful to be accessorized so poorly.

Oh wait... A smiley face 😄

 

Very nice!

 

Now i don't feel like its just me, i thought eric's car looked awesome with the stock wheels
Aside from color, i think 18's are perfect on a 348/355 . They are small cars and 19's seem to look too big on them , just my 2 cents tho . To each his own .

How do the 19" wheels handle and what is the weight difference compared to the stock 18" wheels?

 

This company could make you some OEM looking 19" wheels. I don't know how much they would cost.

EVOD

Boyd Coddington made some 17 "and 18" replica wheels for the Detomaso Pantera. The originals wheels were 15". They did a nice job. Retained the OEM look, but updated.

 

Just a reminder. Beauty and the beast? Guess I'm just an old fart that doesn't get it.
