    i think that in your color a lack of shine is definitely necessary. There's so much in the paint, if you put chrome on it your head would explode!

    I do like the second set of wheels better.

    The Novitec: omg!!! *head explodes*

    The wheels in the second pic look very similar to the Challenge wheels on the CS, which in my opinion are the best looking wheels on the 360.

    Wheels and rubber
    Rear diffuser
    Rear spoiler
    Side diffusers
    Front spoiler
    Skid plates
    Sway bar
    Cam timing
    Test pipes, Capristo II exhaust

    1st ECU replacement wasn't compatible with F1 transmission. Owner of the dealership may be supercharging his 360 Spider in the new year, so I'll wait and see how that turns out before making any further decisions.

    Great thread guys! Please keep posting pics.

    I have a 328 with the convex wheels (ABS) and would like to put something else on the car. I prefer the pre ABS-328's stock concave wheels.
    I'm having trouble finding any aftermarket wheels I like. IMHO most of the newer designs rims don't really go well with the older cars.

    Mine is an '89 and had convex wheels. So if you like mine, those wheels are available.

    Also, see www.garedcars.com

    Thanks for the link Mule.

    Those wheels look really nice on your car. I've seen a guy (who must live close to me) with the same combo as yours, '89 Black compomotive and wider tires.

    I'm looking for something a little different but will have a good search through the compomotive and speedline ranges.

    Compomotive is www.usacomp.com

    When you do decide, ask a lot of questions on offset. That seems to be the big issue (especially with the 88.5 and 89 328's). The Compomotive website has a good tutorial on offset, backspacing, etc. The wheel will determine what size tires you can use. Mine can do a 285 in the rear without rubbing the spring (I have 255). That rear spring is the key and the offset is the factor on how close it is. A 7 inch wheel with the wrong offset wont work, but a 9 inch with the right offset will.

    Ditto on that! That has to be the sexiest 328 I have ever seen.

    Hi,
    Sorry it`s not mine, saw it in a carpark at Mugello and just took a photo for a friend with a Mondial to show him how good they can look!!

    I am almost certain that they are Speedlines model no 2311R, see www.garedcars.com they have them shown on there.

    Regards,
    Phil.

    The wheels on both F360's are the Imola Racing Challenge in 19". The front bumper is the Imola Racing Formula. For more images of modified Ferrari vehicles by Imola Racing, you may visit our site:

    ^^I noticed on your website that you have these Challenge Wheels with a black powdercoat finish also.

    Can they be ordered with a chrome centerpiece finish? or polished aluminum finish?

    If so how much for a set for a 03 360 Spyder? along with tires? Do the fenders need any modification to handle the 19 inchers?
