    Had a set years ago. Helped sell them for a friend. Went to the UK through Daniel if I recall correctly. Lost in a fire?

    Are the hubs OEM? Anyone got a photo of the bare hub?

    Hubs might not be Ferrari OEM , but high chance it is a Michelotto product.

    Centerlock adapter from Taurino might work as well. Need to check diameter of the lug slot of the speedlines and check the back of the wheel

    That's what I remember reading. Too bad if true because they look amazing.

    I love these but would only do them if I was building a modded car / track car. :)

    How would this setup be beneficial?
    I don't know much about centerlocks but I do remember reading that people with centerlock 997 GT3RS would be swapping back to 5 lug setups.

    A quick change of tires during a pit stop.

    And where are y'all gonna find center caps for those things? :D

    You can get the same effect by not refinishing your wheels and tossing the center caps...

    I had center locks on my Testarossa and it was a pain to change a tire and needed 350+ ft/lb to torque the wheels. Needed a 4ft torque wrench.

    You can also use a much smaller torque multiplier.

    Lots of F40s and F50s and modern Porches w/ center locks. This is more of look thing than a practical thing.

    They are the most visually striking wheel for these cars!! It's worth the weight since their 24hr racing days are over.
