Couple of questions: Just bought a set of 19" Challenge Wheels for my 360. Do the Challenge Wheels use the same mounting bolts as stock wheels? Will be selling my 430 wheels with good tires/center caps. Good condition, some minor road rash. Painted Graphite Dark Gray. Plan to list in classifieds. Suggestions for value? I see asking prices vary widely!
If you have actual 19” Challenge wheels and not the “Challenge Style” wheels they have a center lock bolt system. Here are pics for comparison. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Same wheel bolts for the 19" CS/F430 Challenge wheels. F430 wheels seem to bring between $3000 and $4000, with tires not making much difference.
Thank you for the replies! Wheels are the CS/430 Challenge Wheels. Soft market! Listed for $2k or BO. Limited interest.
If you're talking about the Challenge Style wheels that came with the CS and were an option on the F430, they came with different bolts - the titanium ones - in both applications. If your standard steel bolts are the same length, you can interchange them. But know that if you ordered them on your F430 new, they automatically came with the titanium bolts and not the steel ones. Use that information however you want.
Thank you sherpa23. looking at the Ferrari parts list I did note the originals were titanium. Appear to be many non-OEM titanium bolt sets available for reasonable money. No idea of the product quality.
I replaced my starfish wheels with 19" challenge wheels. They completely transform the car. I bought a set of titanium bolts from Exotic Car Gear (877-888-1600). I received 20 bolts, 2 hangers, and 1 socket. $810. High quality perfect fit.
Thank you PGI, always a plus to get actual product feedback! 19" Challenge Wheels arrived yesterday. Look like they were virtually unused! Tires new but 5 years old. Not sure about the black. A bit cramped in the garage with 2 sets of wheels and tires! Need to sell the 430 set or put in temporary storage.
Sorry another question. Were the 19" CS Challenge wheels painted silver from the Ferrari or Bare Aluminum with Clear Coat? Plan to have wheels refinished to factory finish next year.
Ferrari offered The 19” 5 Lug Challenge Wheels in Silver Clear Coated and Polished Aluminum Clear Coated from the factory.
