    A friend of mine wants to vary up the look on his Red/Black 575M and is looking for aftermarket wheels similar in style to those on the Prodrive 550. We really haven't been able to find anything similar that would fit his car, until I came across the I-Forged TE10 Forged Monoblock wheels. They seem to be of the same skinny 10 spoke style to that of the Prodrive GC010 wheels, except the TE10 wheel has a lip, and the the spokes are smooth and do not have ridges like the Prodrives. He's looking to have them made in gunmetal finish similar to the race car.

    I have rendered them on a 575M similar to his, and I think they definitely make his car look more "Scuderia like". I thought I'd share this with you guys and see your thoughts.

    Great look, even though I usually prefer the "stock" look on these cars. Keep us updated. I couldn't find those particular rims on the manufacturer's website, do you have a link?

    looks cool. Check out the Novitec rosso wheels as well. They dont look similar to the prodrives but look nice none the less.

    Nice wheels, but unfortunately not in sizes for the 550 or 575. Perhaps Prodrive would custom-make them. They sure would look nice:

    Anyone know whether 19" Scud rims would fit a 575?

    Robie- Too narrow. 8" x 19" F and 10" x 19" rear. Modulars 8.5" x 19" and 10.5 " x 19". Standard wheels 18" and 8.5" and 10.5 " widths. Incorrect offsets, too.

    Too bad, Scud wheels would be a good look.

    As for the iForged wheels, it looks like they have a solid center, anyone know how one would insert the Ferrari center caps?

    I agree with Robie. I like the stock look. I have played with a number of other wheel options, not of the scud variety, but various 599, 612 and Novitec options, but none of them really beat the 19" Stock Modular Rims (if I could only stop catching them on Kerbs!!)

    As you can see below, I have photoshopped a number of options:

    599 GTB HGTC
    599 Novitec 3
    599 Star shape
    612 Modulars
    Lastly, the standard 575 19" Modulars (ehich I have) for comparison.

    (and please dont tell me the photos are back to front! I already know!)

    I cannot find anything to better the look IMHO of the stock 19" modulars, although the top ones (599 GTB HGTC) would be easier to clean and the 612's look rather smooth.

    Paul- None of the 612 or 599 wheels will fit a 575. Wrong bolt hole pattern. Novitec does make the NF-3s for the 430, though, and those do have the correct bolt pattern. I really like the 599 HGTC and NF3 wheels. Unfortunately the NF3s are likely too big at 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 12.

    The NF2s look good on a 575, as well, and do fit at 19 x 9 and 19 x 12.5 with rear spacers. They are near copies of the Enzo wheels.

    Nice PhotoShop work.

    Thanks Terry. I guess the devil is always in the detail and appreciate the advice. Damn bolt holes!
    Guess I'll stick to the original modulars!

    Paul- I would if I were you. A good set of those wheels is worth ~$7500, more with tires.

    The 599 HGTC wheel was based on the OZ Mito Rosso, which is available in sizes and bolt patterns for a 575, but is only available in a gray color. Offsets would require rear spacers. They are slightly different from the 599 HGTC wheels, but very close and ~$1100 each.
