    Metric wheels,I don't think GT4's came with metric wheels,I think the Mondial and 308 gts/bi had them and some of the earlier QV's..
    Pain in the butt to get tyres for so I wouldn't buy them for free..

    Umm I'm only aware of the 400 series being metric for the Michy tyres.

    I'm happy to be proven incorrect though.

    Yep, you're wrong, The Don is right :)

    I gave my metric wheels away when I had the QV

    Ferrari adopted TRX tyres across the range, including the BBi (and 400). Michelin thought they'd change the world from hated anglo-saxon inches to perfect French millimetres - see how well that worked out for them vs Pirelli :)

    Yep, metric wheels standard in Aust on all GTSi’s and QV’s.

    Though 16” wheels a very, very popular option on QV’s when they were new.

    No, my car is the second last one to Aus and the 16’s were fitted here (before delivery) I believe.

    For Sale: Ferrari OEM Headers 355 (5.2 model).

    As removed from my car 18 months ago. Drivers (RH) side was leaking, other side should be fine.
    Removed, wrapped up and boxed where they have remained ever since.
    I’ve now tripped over the box one too many times and I’ll never likely do anything with them, so

    make an offer!

    Anyone after a F355 Mille Miglia exhaust.
    Came as a spare with one of my cars. Apparently compares in sound to a Tubi.
    $1500
    When I take it out of the box I will take proper photos
