    So excited this Easter! Just bought myself a used set of BBS Challenge 18" wheels. My daughter got a Feber 12v Ferrari California. In addition, I just ordered a new Nouvalari Sport Exhaust from John and Richard.

    I have had the wheels checked out and they are straight and true, so they just need a refurb and some new shoes. I'm looking at Michelin Pilot Super Sport and the Continental Sport 3 which I have always got on with very well - anyone had the Conti's on their 348?

    Just need to get the new Twin-Plate clutch, seals and Hills release bearing fitted!!

    We are excited as well that you chose the Nouvalari super sport for your 348. It will give you an even bigger grin when you hear the engine sing.

    Glenn has the Super Sport on his 348 and loves it!!!

    If you are local to us here in the states we would love to get together tor some updated sound clips. We can also refer a local shop for install.

    I would love to get together, but unfortunately I'm in the UK. However, I have camera and private road, so happy to take some footage and send over!

    X2 I have them on another car (for six months) as well and really like them. Just did the 348 last week on stock 355 wheels and they are great.

    Hi there, how's it going? I have a Nouvalari Supersport on my car, slightly different than standard though. Also have the Conti Sport Contacts, very happy with both. The Contis work well for a road tyre, the Nouvalari is a much more rough sound than the likes of a Tubi but I love the sound it gives. I also got high flow cats from John at Nouvalari and happy with those as well :)

    Another vote for Michelin Pilot Super Sport here, though I haven't tried your other option. The Pilot SS tires changed my car! (355 not 348) It seems like tire tech has jumped about as fast as computer technology.

    More experienced guys might disagree, but I think the Super Sports feel as sticky as the Yokohama A032 R-compound tires I ran on my 911 6-7 years ago. The only differences are that the Michelins are totally road legal and the Yoke's weren't, and the Michelins have a 300 tread rating with the Yoke's having 80!!
