    F355 owner who would love a set as well. Please check your PM, I think you’re local to me and would be willing to offer my car for measurements.

    Sami,

    If you are after performance improvements a monoblock wheel is the best way to go.

    Three piece wheels are considerably heavier and will make any Ferrari much less nimble, cause slower acceleration, and breaking.

    The worst part about three piece wheels is lethargic initial turn-in.

    Ask me how I know.

    I had HRE three piece wheels on my 360 and the car had turned into a truck. I had to fight it into every turn. Acceleration was noticeably slower.

    Three piece wheels look nice when the car is parked but not if you actually want to drive it and enjoy it.

    I was just showing that as reference to sizing. I actually prefer the looks of your CS wheels.

    Hey Sanfran,
    I'm getting ready to do my annual and in the process, I realized I loved the look of my 430 Centerlocks, but hate the install...

    Anyway, do you have any wheels without a home....secondly, are you planning on another order anytime soon?

    I’d like to share a story about Oliver (Sanfran, thread author).

    I took deliver of my 3 pedal 360 spider on 1/10/20 and ordered the remaining set of gray CS wheels Oliver had the very same day. They were in a warehouse in China... as you can imagine, the combination of Chinese New Year and Covid-19 threw this entire process into a tailspin right from the start.

    It took 10+ weeks, but fast forward to last week, and I finally received my full set of wheels. Oliver was communicative and empathetic through the whole process. I could tell he felt terrible for the delays, and kept me updated anytime he had news to share. It was an extremely difficult process for him, and one which was clearly beyond his control.

    The bottom line is many people would just cut it off and leave their customer high and dry. After all, what was happening wasn’t his fault. Not Oliver. He stuck with it and went to great lengths to make sure I got my full set of wheels as ordered. I’m absolutely thrilled with the product, fitment, look, and performance.

    Oliver is a stand up guy who does what he says he’s going to do. He follows through even when the **** hits the fan.

    I’m not sure if he’s ever going to put together another group buy after the fiasco we went through together. But if he does, buy without hesitation, as you’re dealing with a trustworthy seller and a great product.

    Thanks, Oliver!

    Wow those wheels look terrific on your blue car! Oliver’s wheels are awesome. Reminds me I never posted a pic of my car with the silver wheels on it. Here is one of my favorite on track day in Daytona. Thanks Oliver Image Unavailable, Please Login

    What torque setting are you guys using for your titanium bolts ? I’m about to mount mine on my 360 (finally). I believe the “normal” 360 starfish wheels are around 74lbs..... thanks.....

    That’s exactly what I want for my TDF 355, but Oliver never got back to me. I assume it’s cause of the China issue.

    Yeah I’m assuming he’s not going to be producing and selling these anymore.
