Morning everyone What's the consensus on F430 alloys on a 360? I do like the stock 360 alloys but I think the F430 alloys would bring it more up to date. Resale-wise, is it a good move or do people generally want the original alloys when they buy a 360?
I've seen a number of pictures of 360s with 430 wheels and it looks awesome. If you're worried about resale value, hold onto the 360 wheels and sell those with the car too.
I think it gives to new life to the 360, Spiders especially. Kind of modernizes them. The modulars to look great, but so do the 430 alloys. You can't go wrong either way.

I put a set on my 03 spider and am loving it. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Those F430 wheels are beautiful and the offsets exactly match the 360's. If they were wide enough (they are not), I would have put a set on my 575M.

Thanks for the photos guys, your cars look fantastic with the 430 alloys - think I've made up my mind! Loving the black spider
ST- The 19" wheels are fitted with lower profile tires so diameter is just about equal so top speed is pretty much unaffected. ~0.7% difference in rear wheel diameter. 360 275/40 18 tires: (275x0.40x2)/25.4=8.66"+18"=26.66" 430 285/35 19 tires: (285x0.35x2)/25.4=7.85"+19"=26.85" Taz Terry Phillips
430 rims on mine, I think they look even better when lowered with the 19" wheels. Image Unavailable, Please Login
+1! All the 360's in these pics look great with 430 wheels. Keep the original 360 wheels with the car, bolt them back on when its time to sell it and sell off the 430 wheels if you dont need them anymore. You will more than likely get most, if not all your money back on the 430 wheels down the track.
They do look terrific. Does anyone know how much of a weight penalty there is (if any) with switching to the 430 wheels? Terry nicely posted about every statistic about all these but I didn't see the weight shown.
ST- 612 wheels use a 5x114.3 mm bolt circle and 430s and earlier use a 5x108 mm bolt circle, so the wheels will not fit. Here is the entire list. No weights. Too much work. May add tires, though.
