    Having a tough time finding ones. Ideally want black or flat black good looking wheels to simply replace the stock 20" ones- off with old in with new on existing tires no modifications. Thank you in advance! 2014 458 Italia

    Wondering if they can work in the North East or if hitting spring bumps from winter in pavement will crack or deform them....

    I went with STANCE black wheels from california. Just shy of 2 grand with shipping included- direct replacement for the 20" stock 5 stars on my 458. I'll take pics when mounted in next week or so and share thanks

    Looks like many of you have lowered your 458. I have heard of "novitech springs" -but all in how much am i looking at to lower my 458 parts and labor? tks

    You can lower the car on the stock suspension. If your car doesn’t have the front end lift option you can lower it more than with it. My car above is lowered on stock suspension (No lift).

    I have Novitec springs on the Speciale. Given the option it makes more sense to have a spring operating at a compression rate that it's designed for vs. lowering on stock springs. HOWEVER, I've lowered cars on stock springs/coil overs many times without issues, it's just not *as* good. You'd probably never notice the difference.

    From what I can see it's still a coil over system on the front (nuts are #3 and #2). You should be able to just buy a set of coil wrenches and lower the car. Make sure to get wrenches that have a hole in them for a socket wrench/breakover bar, they can be sort of seized at times.
