    Hello all. I'm about to order Hre 19's for my 360 coupe and the tires from the stadale (p aero corsa). The 360 stradale has 7.5' front wheels & 10" rears. Should I stick with this size or should I go with the suggested 8" fronts & 10.5 rears? My only motivation is performance, not looks. I'm getting really conflicting opinions, educated ones please reply. Thanks.

    Just put a set on my 2001 Yellow 360 Spider. Front 19x8.5/pirelli P-Zero Rosso235/35/19, Rear 19x11/pirelli P-Zero Rosso295/30/19. Haven't driven the car very much to give honest opinion as to performance, but the car looks great with them. I'll put the originals back on when I track the car.

    I believe we discussed this before. Because most Ferrari owners believe that their car should remain as it left the factory there hasn't been alot of R&D on aftermarket wheel/tire options for the street. Obvisiously its safe to go with the factory recommendations. However, if your a bit more serious about performance most Euro tuners agree there is room for making good better. Imola Racing recommends 8.5 x 19, (235/35), 11 x 19, (295/30). Typically I don't feel that wheel/tire retailers or accessory stores can offer you the help you need. Locally there are a few tuners and or race prep. facilities with years of track experience that can assist you with options based on your needs. If performance/handling is your goal wheel/tire combo's is only the beginning. Getting the entire suspension, (shocks, springs, sway bars, alignment, ride height, rake) on point is crucial.
