    Gorgeous piece of kit. Please do post photos when mounted in the car, along with rim & tire dimensions. I’m highly interested in the same model

    Any idea on weight difference between these and the stock magnesium 355 wheels?

    I've decided to sell my challenge wheels if anyone is relatively local to Seattle for pickup. Certainly period. :)

    I thing (will use this as reference)

    But not sure yet must brainstorm a bit. First need to test fit the wheels and see how it goes and next step the tires.

    Will keep you posted.

    For 295/35-18 I run Bridgestone RE-71RS tires; crazy high grip and steering feel but they ride HARD

    Nice style; it’s hard to improve on the 355 18 due to its rather low weight (magnesium).

    18s I would personally go Speedline or OZ if not interested in the OEM swap from the Luca-era cars mentioned earlier

    Augment can build you perfect replicas *out of magnesium* for about $5600. That’s the route I’d go. 30 year old magnesium scares me.

    NEEZ Japan makes magnesium wheels in 355 sizes. Lighter than Speedline mag wheels.

    NEEZ wheels have a great retro modern look but their prices put them out of the reach of most 348 owners.
