Most people who decide to lower and put ghetto-ass wheels on a 355 will never drive it at 65mph on a twisty back road anyway so irrelevant-
Form follows function--aesthetics be damned. While it may not be a practical car, I still like to get home after a long drive, rather than sitting around in 107º Texas summer heat for 2 hours, with a bent wheel and deflated tire, waiting for a flat-bed. I run mine at Factory ride heights, and still have to dodge all sorts of road irregularities, including curbs.....
19” inch wheels are the perfect size. Any bigger and the proportions will look offf, plus you’ll be driving on rubber bands! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Chris, still waiting to know your tires dimensions since last october... Come on, how hard could it be?
Thanks Chris It is a good choice to match original overall diameter and keep the weight down. I was also thinking about 275/35/19 for the rear, it's a little off but not much (0.9%).
Rolling diameter at the front is 25.1" So you COULD put 23" wheels on the front. Rolling diameter at the rear is 26.3" So you COULD put 24" wheels on the rear. But the 13.x" brakes are going to look very tiny inside those monstrous wheels.

I like it, somehwat the OEM wheels looks too dated and your wheels make it modern looking and more aggressive. You have the size of the Rotiform wheels?

You may have changed your name here, but you're still the same: keeping posting negative stuff in threads you have no interest. I don't see the point, but if that pleases you... Why don't you show us a car you like instead? Oh yes... there isn't any in 19 "...
Bigger wheels make a car look shorter and I don’t think 19”+ wheels suit the 355. Not to mention you have to slam car keep them from looking ridiculous. Some, of course, are uglier than others One day you’ll care less about how your car looks on IG and more about how it drives. It’s ok, it’s a phase most of us go thru in our youth. You’ll grow out of it. .
I know your opinion about this. So why are you still checking this thread? You won't find anything that suits you. Understand it is boring for others to always see you complaining. Doing it once, I get it, but everytime somebody else is posting a new pic? The only thing I agree with you is that you have to lower the car if fitted with bigger wheels. That's 100% right!
I’m not “checking the thread” I get emails when it’s updated. I then share my opinion. As do you. Which I thought you were ok with, but I guess not? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Not 19” of course, but who’s going to be the brave boy that puts these on their 348/55? https://bringatrailer.com/listing/ferrar-f512m-wheels/ Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
I still think the perfect wheel size (visually) for a 355 is 19", but this car is looking really good with those 20" wheels. Nice design, even if they're a little too big and wrong offset for my tastes : Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
