x1000. My thoughts exactly.

The car is stunning, and there's no question you have good taste...but the wheels kill it. ADV.1 is just another garbage boutique Miami wheel brand like the dozens of others. To top it off, it's run by a scumbag named Jordan Swerdloff.

A Ferrari deserves proper wheels such as the ones named above plus a select few more. ADV.1 wheels on a Ferrari is a shame.

My previous ADV.1 wheels on my SL55 are perfect, run on those for 1 year with no problem whatsoever, many spirited mountain driving.

I've been driving my F430 with ADV.1 wheels for two months now and they're perfect also.

It's YOUR problem if you don't like ADV.1, definitely NOT my problem.

Nice car btw.

Beautiful. I think the rims are very nice, well sized and actually really enhance the car's look. But then again I too also ride on 20's.

No, there are lots of variables, whether you stay with only one company, consulting/contracting through agent or independent, size of the company, etc.

Yeah, I don't have kids yet.
But having a kid won't keep me away from having a Ferrari + the mods.
It's all relative.

I have to agree that the wheels are too big. I dont know much about the quality of ADV1 but I feel like those wheels do not fit. Too much focus on the wheels and not on the beauty of the beast. I feel like something is wrong with the rear offset too.. any plans on putting the rear scuderia bumper?

They're only 1" larger than stock 19" wheels. The spokes are really thin and all the way to the wheel lips make the wheels look bigger.
Nothing wrong with any of the offsets, you should know that camera/iphone/lens, lighting etc can change pic perspective.
