    I was wanting to not like them, but actually, they complement your car.

    Here is a pic with a bit better light. Will post a proper picture if it ever stops raining in Houston!!!

    Going to lower it to Euro spec next week as well. I was nervous to "be bold and go gold" but i love how it turned out. I know some wont like the look but i definitely do!

    I like gold wheels but was too afraid to put them on my car. Kudos :)

    It begs for something in the center of the wheel to help focus the eye. It need not be colored Ferrari logo caps but its an empty space that needs filling with something with contrast or mass.

    Dvb and Loz thanks for the kind words. Alponetourer - ADV1 does offer a kit that allows me to put the original Ferrari center caps in there which i may do. Going to live with it for a while and decide. Anyway appreciate the feedback!

    What did you have on prior? For me, changing the wheels on my 430 would be like messing with a piece of art. And I have stock 430 wheels. I'm not even a big fan of challenge wheels but that's just me. These wheels look okay but for me it will always be stock :)

    Labman. I am almost always a "stock wheels" guy too. I just dont love the OEM wheels on the f430. I am keeping them in storage of course for the next buyer. But i felt like doing something a bit out there with my first Fcar and i love the ADV1 product.

    I really like the style of the wheels but would go with a gray finish. Gold wheels are something I'd expect to see on a Lamborghini, not a Ferrari. But that's just me, kudos for going with what you like.

    A lot of Scuderias were delivered with factory gold wheels. But i understand your point on lambos vs ferraris. Thats why i didnt paint it lime green :)

    Looks great and fitment makes the car look more aggressive. Have the challenge wheels, just wish they were bigger with a better offset.

    They look like scuderia wheels. I kind of like them.

    Thanks for kind feedback guys. They are 20's both front and rear.
    Gated - timely comment on height as the car is currently at Sphere Motorsports getting lowered .50 to .75 inches now. Picking it up tomorrow!
