    Guys,

    I am hankering after a replacement set of rims for my 348.

    Anybody recommend a particular set, and if so is there a link to the supplier?

    I like the look of the 355 wheel. Can these just go straight onto my car or are they not compatible?

    Any ideas and opinions most welcome, thanks!

    Jeff,
    AndyHls has a lush pair of 355 Speedline Challenge wheels on his 348 and they look v cool. Pretty sure you'll need a spacer kit if you want any 355 wheels on your car.

    But in my humble opinion nowhere near as good as the originals. Why do you want to change Geoff, yours is one of the most immaculate examples I have seen?

    Thanks everyone, appreciate the comments... and the pics Badapple.

    Well Al, I have loved the look of the 355 style wheels for long enough, and yes I know that many prefer the originals but I`ve decided that I`m not going to be one of those that steadfastly maintains originality (although I started out with that view when I first got the car).

    Getting the Tubi was a turning point; the car was so much better than stock I couldn`t believe it. Since I`m not going to be in any serious concours events, I intend making the car how I really want it.

    Justin, your wheels look great to me, as do Mike`s. Something about the thinner spoke thing that seems to give an extra dimension (to me).

    I`ll be contacting QV later this week when I get back to the UK.

    Take care y`all!

    Geoff
