That red 355 looks good on those rims. Looks definitely better than stock speedlines. The rims do lack some proper offset specs or a concave design. Here are some pics of the 355 that hasn't been posted yet. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Nice pick, never cared for the jeweling on the spoke blades myself but the twin spoke looks great on these cars it should look slightly updated but not too much. better mine the less. 8.5 front, that's mighty wide. You going with clear silver or bronzish finish? Post em up when installed! Sent using FerrariChat.com mobile app

Glad I stumbled upon this thread... I'm actually planning on some 18" BC Forged wheels for my 348. Also agonizing over final wheel choice. Interested in your final offsets.
Since I have an F355, the offset will be different than those that are needed for the 348. I'm staying very close to the factory wheel spec of ET 32 for the fronts and ET 77 for the rear. JD
Got the wheels in today. Shout out to Vivid Racing and Michael on these. These were actually received in a shorter time than first quoted. To refresh y'all, these are BC Forged EH175 and the finish is a Brushed Grey. The depth of the finish is more translucent than the pictures show. I'll have the tires mounted this weekend and get them on the car. Meanwhile here's a couple of pics in the box with the center cap and lugs sitting on the wheel. The Titanium center cap is a perfect match and worth the extra $pend. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
There is no room for a dish on a a 355. The distance from hub to fenders is just to small. What other car has a near 80mm offset in the rear? I attempted a dish on mine with my pg3, when I was mocking it up I simply mounted the spokes to the hub, and the spokes are almost flush with the fender. Oh well...
It's what BC came up with using the widths and offsets I provided for the F355 and enough clearance for the StopTech BBK that will go on. Also because the front and rear offsets are different by a large amount, I want to make sure that the "dish" and the center depth be uniform front and rear were as close to each other as possible. There IS a bit of dish. The front on pics don't show it too well. I've seen wheels with deeper dishes in the front or rear relative to the rear and fronts and they looked way to weird. I wanted the look the same all around. So using all those requirements, I'm very happy with the results. They provide profile drawings along the way for approval before the wheels were machined so there would be no surprises.
Definitely can have wheels with a dish on a 355 and yes usually its different front to rear 360 wheels are an example of this. I like that myself but can't wait to see them on! Love the color.
Definitely doable dished seen it frequently perhaps it depends on the specific wheel design/structure. Usually more dish rear than front or no dish in front. (I like that personally but I get having it the same all around). The BC wheels selected with minimal dish should look good I have seen similar wheels on a 355, I bet this will turn out to be a great selection. The wheels have a lot of jeweling on them with facets etc which gives a bit more modern look, will be interesting to see how it matches the 355, I bet it works well. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Long over due follow up. My move to North Port Florida from Atlanta is almost done. Still setting up my new garage. Got my car from MCS a couple weeks ago for suspension work and finally got around to installing the wheels.... actually just the right side tonight.. left side tomorrow. Stop Tech Big Brake Kit in a couple of weeks to fill all the emptiness in the wheel. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
The rear and front wheels looks identical, looks the same in width. Are those staggered? Rear looks like no wider then the front.
Front tires 225/40 x 18, Rear tires 285/35 x 18 Front wheel spec. 18x8 ET 32, Rear wheel spec. 18x10.5 ET 70
