    Hey guys!

    So some said my wheels were a little too wild for them, so i swapped them out this weekend for a new set. Apparently this new style is a OEM 458/488 hybrid design from Velos and in my opinion look amazing! I hope you guys like them!

    some shots from the weekend, sorry for the quality -

    specs - Velos S5 - 21/22" set up

    If there is any doubt that the 488 or scud cannot touch the 458 in appearance, these pics put that to rest....

    Thanks guys!!

    yea the 21/22 combo looks absolutely perfect on the car! who would have thought we could run wheels that big and it looks like this. performance wise ill be honest it feels as fast or faster than stock, i guess because these are still light. The fronts are 21x9 and rear is 22x12. Fitment is perfect, no rubbing or issues like that.

    Im lowered on Novitech suspension and pretty much dropped all the way on the adjustable coils.... i take serious advantage of my front lift system!

    Rims look great and go perfect with your color car, is that grigio Silverstone?

    These wheels have a resemblance to the modular wheels on the 360. I love them!

    No problem with F1 trac error messages ? What size rubber front and rear ?

    Looks great. I'm doing the Novitec springs soon with Speciale wheels and Italia spec size rubber.

    Wish my OEM 20's looked like that! One of the better AM sets I've seen on a 458.

    Nice job.

    I've started to like the Speciale especially after the 488 introduction but the purity and elegance of the original 458 is still unmatched IMO. Needless to say I'm not a fan of the 488, feels modern but also refurbished... still not for me.

    Very, very nice wheels!!! Perfect stance in a new-classic spec, is that silverstone/cuoio, I guess?

    Hey guys!

    Here is another one, Im going to try and get more pics for you soon! Yes the car is Grigio Silverstone and im obsessed with it. absolutely 0 issues with F1 trac and no error messages as the wheels even though larger than OEM do have the correct OD for the car, careful if your running oem speciale wheels and tires as im not sure if they throw a code or not. More pics coming soon!

    Love the ride height and dark wheels! Opting for the spider was the right option :)
