    Hi, I have just acquired an F430. The (after market?) 20" wheels are in perfect condition (two years old) but they are black. I prefer the more traditional factory silver look. So, does anyone in the NC / SC area know of a good shop that will refinish my wheels in silver?

    Presumably the shop will remove and remount the tires from the rims and I don't need to get that done separately?

    Also, I understand that these wheels look very like the 458 wheels (picture below) but, as the 458 bolt pattern is different, they can't be 458 wheels (they are not absolutely identical anyway. Can anyone out there identify these wheels (manufacturer / style) ? Thanks.

    I actually just used Innovative last month. Apparently I had two hairline cracks in my Audi’s rear wheels and they were able to fix them up with no issues. Really, really nice people.

    We can get those done for you. We have used the same company for a decade or more. They dismount, repair, powder coat (the correct way to change color) and mount.

    Give us a call.

    Cheers

    So, just to follow up, I did contact Peter at Automotive International and I now have beautiful wheels expertly refinished in Argento Nurburgring (the original Ferrari color).

    Great guys, great facility & a great job.

    Thanks
