    I think the two tone wheel makes the rears look too small...kind of frumpy. The standard GTB diamond cut are incredible, I agree. If the CF wheels were the newer 849 design, I may order them. I'm leaning towards the matt gray race wheel and maybe a silver painted detail around the outside to match the dreamlines, should I go that route.

    I love the white wheels but just feel they'll be a pain to keep clean. Please convince me they're not.

    I think the white wheels are maybe the best
    Option but they just feel inappropriate on a Ferrari, to me.

    Color wheels / outer wheel edge Porsche thing - matching body RS graphics in vinyl.
    Roundel / painted number / stripes / lower dream lines accomplish same in Ferrari the shield doesn't help so eliminating or small shield works.
    My Opaco GS and wheels are painted same - 296 is small - matching wheels / paint so for me white or blue carbon wheels makes sense - prefer a clean 2-3 color look.

    I’ve learned to never say never. Keep an open mind. Ferrari has had all kinds of wheels in its history. The one thing they had in common: they are all round :p

    interesting you say that. Someone else told me to that it doesnt feel they should be on a ferrari. I thought the launch spec with white wheels looked incredible (at least in pics)

    Took years to slow down a sea of red from the factory.
    296VS I posted is a copy of race livery - the after market world freaks Ferrari owners out like none other. Love seeing the old / new livery on special editions.

    The English still have their default favorite even going back to the 348 and earlier. The signature detail is Crema with that red carpet >

    rosso maranello, but it's just a preliminary spec, not finished.

    I think the 355 Challenge came with specific speedline white wheels.
