    HREs are my least favorite. I voted for the first set.

    Definitely Monolithic.

    The factory modular wheels are hideous, the offset is all wrong for that design.

    I like the 2nd and 3rd choices. The 612 is a big heavy car and does not look right on the lightweight stradale wheels. just my 2 cents

    Factory Modular.

    The Challenge wheels are so over used. 360, 430, 612, 599...Enough.

    The Challenge wheels without the slightest doubt for my tastes.

    I know they are over-used, but they look too good...

    QFT! Haven't seen a modern Ferrari where the Challenge Wheels don't make the car even more beautiful :)

    I'm glad - Thank you for your votes! Keem 'em coming!

    I'm glad that "sell the car" isn't in the lead. That makes me smile :).

    Overused or not - the Challenge/Monolithic wheels are really nice. They are a strong, sturdy wheel from what I understand and give a nice ride to this boat of a car.

    I happen to like all three choices which I posted - I really do like the "stock" Modular wheels. I agree, it would be nicer to see a bit more of a lip or a larger wheel with the 612 - but the design and look af the wheel is great IMO.

    I loved my HRE's alot when I got them, but I find the car looks too muscle with them - more like a viper or mustang with those wheels - The 612 looks mean and tough with the HRE's - I guess for right now, I'd like her to look more like a dancer :).

    Thanks again gents!

    Be well,

    IMO the Challenge wheels look the best and more "in with the times"

    I think the first set looks best, by far.

    So, even after buying the wheels - I couldn't keep the other car out of my system.

    I have sold the 612! Can't believe it....

    In anycase - I have two sets of wheels and tires for sale :) - the HRE's and the Challenge - The Challenge wheels have tires with less than 50 miles on them.

    Thanks everyone for all their help. The F-car was a truly enjoyable experience. I will be back, but I couldnt stay away from my first, true love.....

    Be well!

    ASG- Time for an ad in FerrariAds. With what did you replace the 612? please let it be a Ferrari.

    The Challenge wheels are very tempting-- they really look great. Then I could mount some Blizzaks on my stock wheels for winter... hmm...
