    Guys, I spent all day at the airport picking up our wheels.

    For those of you who paid they are now at UPS awaiting pick up and shipping to you.

    I sent everybody a PayPal request for the UPS shipping charge from me to you.

    Please post pictures in this thread when you have the wheels and let everybody know how you like them. This way we can keep all the information together in one thread.

    Thank you.

    What a great initiative @sanfran ! Congratulations, I am fan.
    I think many Europeans will be jealous to see such a realisation from Americans for their Ferrari ;-)

    Hi,

    Have you considered having 19" starfish wheels made? It's getting hard to get 18" tires but I like the stock wheels.

    That’s an interesting idea. 19” replicas of 458 or 488 starfish wheels would be super cool.

    Maybe its just me, but I would jump at buying a set of 18" Challenge type wheels (NON Mg!). Really prefer the 18" ride quality on the roads around here.

    My understanding is that the Ferrari challenge race wheels, which are 18", are Magnesium. They can be put on our cars, but lack the strength of a typical wheel.

    I need to stop you guys about your 18" wheels. Please make your own thread if that is what you want to discuss.

    I discussed the nightmare that is the 18" MAGNESIUM "RACING ONLY" wheel AT GREAT DETAIL in my original thread. See link below.

    18" Magnesium wheels are a really bad idea. Regular 18" wheels have very limited tire choices which are getting worse every year.

    I will NOT ever make 18" wheels. There is no demand to speak of.

    Ummmmm.... I think I agreed with you regarding the Mg wheels......?!?!?!?

    But understood regarding 18" wheels. It was worth a try!

    Looks nice. What's the pricing for 360 19"? I recall seeing them in another thread a long time ago taking orders.
