    Hi,

    which wheels does the members here recommend for a F430? My original 19" wheels have trackday tires on them, and they are kind of scratched up, so I was thinking of paint them dark silver and keep for track days.

    I was hoping to find wheels from another Ferrari model that would fit the F430. Any ideas? Or aftermaket wheels that keep the stock appearance? I don't like "bling", since I find it hard enough to use the car anyway due to the massive attention it brings.

    Preferably I would go 20", but maybe that would change the appearance too much. Any thoughts?


    Regards,

    Johan

    Personally, I would get:
    1. Challenge wheels, or
    2. Scud wheels
    preference in that order.

    Agreed! The challenge wheels look great on the 430 and the 360, as do the Scud wheels. No need to go aftermarket.

    I just added Ryft wheels in place of the challenge, I am not a fan of the bright chrome look. Perhaps if they were powder coated or painted which I may do soon. The setup allowed for 325s on the rear and 255s front which feels much more planted.

    Agree, chrome is not "great", but in the standard silver color (like in the 05 430 manual ad) the challenge wheels look great IMO. I am not a fan of the ball polished either, although not as bad as the chrome.

    Good Day,

    I have both the 19" OEM Scuderia and Challenge Wheel Sets if needed.

    Cheers

    Thanks! :D

    I have also since replaced my yellow hub caps with the titanium caps. They look great! Also running the TI bolts which look awesome and very light.

    Wow, not usually a fan of aftermarket wheels on Ferraris but those are stunning.

    HRE makes quality wheels

    Those look nice but I would prefer them to be darker.

    Wow, these HRE wheels look very nice! Close to stock, just larger. Where are these sold? Tried Ebay but nothing there.
