    I'm currently looking for some rims, for use duiring the winter and came across these (See attached) It's Tailor-made 21" NOVITEC ROSSO forged wheels and I simply just love them!

    But they are 21" compared to my current 20". Will these have a big effect on the comfort? Pros and cons anyone? Maybe grinding the frontwheels while turning? Should I have the suspension upgraded to help or?

    My plan was, to use the OEM 20" Gold wheels for winter and the 21" Novitec for next years summer periode.

    Greetings!

    Novitec makes these specific to the 458 platform and they are direct fitment. When going from a 20" to a 21", the new tires utilized will have the same/similar diameter to your factory 20" tires so as to avoid any rubbing or fitment issues. I recently upgraded from 20" to 21" on my F10 M5, and love the look. My general thought on upgrading wheels is it's almost always best to go +1" in diameter over factory. You won't need to upgrade the suspension or any other aspects of the car, and as these are forged monoblocks, they will still be lightweight.

    We are a Novitec distributor and I'd be happy to help you through your ordering process. If I can be of any assistance, feel free to PM me on here or email me at [email protected].

    Cheers!
