    Thanks, Phil. I just did a search and found that thread, as well as a couple others. No one seemed to have a good experience with them, so for now I'll pass on them.
    Any other suggestions?

    Around the time of the Image Wheels threads, I had called Compomotive in the UK, and asked if they would make me a set of 17" TSs, which they agreed to. I never went through with it (as I had bought a set of 16" HRE 505s off eBay), but it might be worth a call to them to find out if they will accept an order and make you a set.

    New HRE are very expensive and my friend even had clear peeling problem with them and he had to fight to get them redone. The car had never been driven yet.

    What about the Carobu wheel, it's pretty close.

    I've thought about the Carobu wheels, but decided against them because I don't quite like the style. If you look at the wheels here:
    http://carobu.com/Ferrari_wheels.html
    the one on the far right is what they show for the 308, but I don't like that the area in the center and the spoke centers is all one, flat area; I prefer the individual recesses on the spokes, like on the 288 GTO and F40. The second wheel from the right is that way, but I don't like the curved spokes. Perhaps they could make me a custom set that combines the two designs, but the standard set is already $4800, which is more than I want to spend.

    I may have a line on a used set of Compomotives, but please keep the suggestions coming, in case that falls through.

    Thanks!

    What offsets and widths are these wheels? Does anyone have the numbers?
