    I'd have thought a lot of guys would have jumped on this thread, as wheels seem to be a popular topic.
    I don't know about a 348, but these look like a good replacement for metric sized wheels, and/or TRs and Boxers with the knockoffs for those that would like to go to a 17" wheel.
    Or is this seller a scammer with Chinese knockoffs, and I'm the only guy that doesn't know about him? :)

    He is not a scammer. They are Compomotive wheels. I have them on my 328 (see profile). Great wheels, good service.

    In fact, that is my car in his ad (with permission).

    Thanks Mule, and gorgeous car!
    I've been considering seventeens, or maybe eighteens for my Boxer, but want something that's close to the original look. These might just do it.
    How long did it take to have them made up and delivered?

    Since they make them for your car, it took about 6 weeks to get them. Mine are 17 inch, made for the 1989 convex wheel 328. Order an extra center cap or two. Hate to lose one 10 years from now, and not be able to replace it.

    I agree, these are more for the older Ferraris like the 308's 328's, and TR's. Since they are 17" they would not be much of an upgrade on a 348 with stock 17's to begin with. I had them installed on my 308 and TR and it made a world of difference. I bought one set from that guy in California, nice to deal with but it takes forever to get them.

    I bought a set of these for my 308 about 4 years ago. Am very pleased with them. They have held up even under track conditions. Paid around the same price 4 years ago. Great rims. Great manufacturer.
