New HREs on my 430...

I have HREs on alot of my other cars but never had any of the Monoblocks. I wanted a different look from what I had on my last couple of Ferraris and liked the look of the Novitec wheel but didn't want a heavy cast wheel. I went with the HRE M47s, 19/20 combo. I may get another set of fronts in 20 just to see what it will look like. I am also thinking about lowering it another .5" all around. What do you guys think?

I like it. I dont love it.

I see what you were going for with the Novitec look (i also love the Novitecs) but something just isnt right. I mean, dont get me wrong, its a 430 on HREs so its completely sick, but if your nit-picking (and want feedback) id vote for another look.

That being said, you NAILED the stance of the car. Is that stock ride height?

Good looking wheel. Trying to find the right wheel for the 360 I just bought. How much do those weigh?

congrats on the tx mile car too btw. Kean was asking me about aero consulting. I think we can help you with the high speed drag issue...

I'm not a huge fan of after-market wheels on F-cars but yours look pretty good. Nice garage by the way

nice look to the car... much better then the novi route imo.
I think you have a nice drop already but never hurts to go a tad lower
