    So. Awesome.

    The only "aftermarket" wheels that a 355 should ever wear.

    SABS Wheel Repair in Houston. Painted, not powder coated. They repair magnesium wheels. One of my wheels needed repair, superb results.

    Thanks! My Challenge set is in good shape, but I'm still thinking about making them perfect sometime soon. Yours came out really, really well! Like the bolts, too.

    Awesome. The bolts for the challenge wheels are just a tad longer than those that were on the stock wheels. How much are a set of the Hills going for?

    Sort of. The 355CH wheels (when mounted on a 348) use a slightly different size... but the pricing is still the same. 52mm (as we list on our site) is standard for 355, 360, 430 when using stock wheels and no spacers.

    On my 355 with the challenge wheels, the regular bolts are not long enough and I needed the longer 55mm. Do these come in the longer version?

    Correct. CH wheels use 55mm, and the head IIRK for the rears is slightly deeper. I'd need to check my notes at the office, but certainly they are not standard 348-sized bolts.

    Wow. That looks awesome. There is something about those challenge wheels. They look so right. I liked them the first day I saw them on a 348 GT car some 20 years ago.
