Taz,did you consider installing similar looking factory made f430 wheels before you purchased your nf1 and nf2 wheels .Did you think the width of the rims weren't wide enough?
Antony- No, because I knew they were way too narrow. We had at least one owner here with F430 wheels on a Maranello (or 456, forget which) and he ended up swapping them out because they were obviously too narrow, for a Maranello or 456. This is my list and you can see F430 wheels are 1" too narrow up front and 1/2" too narrow in the rear for a Maranello.

Do you have a link, Terry? I'd probably spring for the adapters and titanium caps if I could find them.
Allan- Unfortunately, no. Just a glimmer of a memory. Sad when you get old and cannot remember things.
Taz- This is a Great listing that you have offered time & again to assist people and I have even saved a copy and refer to it often in my endeavors. Have you ever thought to add the prescribed tire sizes to the respective applications? It would be a Great added value (and perhaps a Great chore as well!)
I know these pix have been circulated over time, but they do sport the NF2's Always wondered why they didn't do Maranello style headlamps when the 456M was introduced... Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Sorry to go off topic, but I have never seen a 456 with a Maranello style headlamp. Is this the only car? more info? Scott
Scott- No info available. Has been thoroughly researched with no luck. Possibly early Novitec, but they claim they know nothing.
Tass I'm still looking for nf2 wheels. I have noticed there are nf3 wheels made for the 430. They are 20 inch front and back. Do you think they would be ok for a 456 or a 550 ?
Pretty wheels and the NF3s were about double NF2 price. Fronts are 9x20, so not sure whether they would rub or not.
Thanks. Really like this type of wheel . Interestingly I think 550 one of the few later models which look ok in Rosso corsa
