    Does anyone know if the 20" five spoke 458 rims fit on a 16m? I've seen 16Ms fitted with the five spoke rim in charcoal and I think the look is awesome. If anyone can assist, could you also let me know of anyone selling a set? Thanks

    I can't seem to find the info, but I don't think so as I believe the bolt pattern (at the minimum) is different.

    They don't fit. 458 wheels don't fit 430's.

    I am in the process of putting a set of 20inch wheels on my F430 spider, but I am still waiting for new tyres.
    I would firstly recommend to check the offset of the new wheels correctly, and then don't go for crazy wide rims.

    Personally I went for 20x8 at front and 20x11 at rear.

    For this I originally bought a set of P Zero 235 30/20 and 305 25/20 but they were way to stretched on the wheels and also too low profile so potential damage would have been inevitable.

    So now I have ordered a set of Michelin PS2 245 30/20 and 325 25/20.
    I will let you know how I get on.

    Thanks for the help guys. Russell, your 16m with the five spoke is a 19" then? Any idea where to find them?

    The 19 inch 5 spoke 16M wheels are a factory option. They are forged and very light weight, much lighter than the standard Scuderia wheels. Stupid price from Ferrari but I have seen a number of people have posted that they have sourced them from specialist dealers, not sure if they are the exact same wheels or copies.

    +1. That style was first available on the 16M. I think that it is by far the best looking wheel for that car. Most likely why they chose to use it for the 458.

    Now I understand. Thanks. If you know of someone with access to them at a reasonable price, please let me know. Thank you!
