I have begun what I expect to be a long wait to find a good example of a Countach 400S Series 3. As I am located in Australia, it has to be a...
This from a conversation I had a few minutes ago with my friend Carl here in Melbourne, who has two RHD fibreglass 308s: The first time 16" wheels...
The old chariot looks right at home in the English countryside. :-) £48K is less than half what you would pay for a good 308 in Australia....
I agree. Even without the original wheels! [ATTACH]
I concur. My first drive of a Ferrari was doing about 250kms in my friend's Fibreglass 308 on 14" wheels, which I would imagine to be was well set...
Interesting. I had not heard that. I wonder if it is really the reason Ferrari went with TRX.
The primary reason for me wanting to find TRX rims is to restore the car to the condition in which it left the factory. That really is the extent...
I am only interested in wheels in excellent condition. The cost of refinishing them makes ones with damage not really worth anything.
If I ever get the TRXs, I may end up keeping the BBSs. I just had my first track day at Phillip Island Grand Prix circuit. It's a fast track....

Hi windsock, yours look nice but unfortunately these are the USA polished rim option which was not available in Australia and therefore not...
These wheels were not original or factory options for a 308.
Mondial wheels are not correct for a 308.
Incorrect for a 308.
Waiting on a couple of people with them to get back to me. I actually like the look of the original 14" wheels, with the higher profile tyres. In...
Or in Australia, AFAIK. I *believe* 16" wheels were an option. My spare, along with the original tyre, is a TRX.
How did you go? For some reason, FC won't allow me to send a PM to you.
Thanks for that. But at AUD$2k per wheel, plus shipping, I think I will pass! In any event, these are actually the 16" wheels. I am looking for...
