Novitec NF4 Wheels - NEW RELEASE

Novitec just released their NF4 wheels for the 458 Italia and Maserati Gran Turismo. These wheels have been top secret for a few months now. Only two sets so far were brought into the US and both sets were sold by us at Exotica Motorsports. I am still waiting on exact prices but they should be close to the NF3 prices.

1-pc lightweight forged wheels, 10x21" with 255/30 R21 Pirelli P-Zero tires front, 12x22" with 335/25 R22 Pirelli P-Zero tires rear

Hmmm...I like the style but 21"s are too big, IMO. The design of the wheel already makes them appear larger than they are, I bet 20"s or even 19"s would be much better.

Agreed! Though the 458 sure does make 22s looks ok in the fenders...IMHO it's too big for any performance breed. 19s are still optimal. Perhaps 19s front ad 20s rear. Even 20s front and 21s rear is a tad too big by my standards.

Still its a nice design. Novitec as always...

I agree the wheels are too big. Just me though. 20/19 would be ok.

20/19 is the limit IMO. Any bigger it'd be a showcar.

That's the first wheel design (to me anyway) that I think looks better than the OEM.

I agree. I think a one piece wheel looks better than a multipiece since it is more stock appearing. Novitec has some good designers and their products are top notch.

The design is too 'fussy'.

Are they the same size as the OEM tire? Or are they wider?
