    Having a discussion with my Fiancé (it's her car) and the wheels on her 2016 California T

    Came with OEM diamond polished 5 spoke wheels installed when purchased
    It also came with OEM Cali T wheels in boxes

    The OEM wheels provide a smoother, more comfortable ride.
    The Italia wheels offer better performance.

    The discussion has come down to looks....

    So, without telling you which of us likes which wheels better, please offer up your opinion of these two options below:

    I like the Cali T OEM ones better than the 458 rims because they look beefy and proper. Good luck. Lol.

    I’m blown away by these results. I think those stock Cali T wheels are the worst Ferrari wheel since the Mondial.

    If you provided a picture of your Fiancé it would help in our decision making.

    LOL tell her the 458 wheels are "thin," "svelte," and that the Cali T stock wheel is "chonky!" :D Women love the word chonky.

    Thats what I have on mine, definitely prefer those. It has the star pattern of traditional Ferrari, yet modern looking, just like the California T

    Me too, I have these on my Cali T and in the end, it was the deciding factor why I bought it among the 3 I was considering

    Option 2 by a mile. If you don't like the Cali T diamond wheels, those 458 wheels look much more interesting and complimentary to the car's beauty than the plain Jane and small stock wheels..

    If those are the only two choices I’d definitely take the 458 wheels. The others are just too ‘blocky’ - They would look more at home on a Miata.

    Cuoio… sold it in 2018 with 20k miles. That owner wrecked it last year, sadly.
