WHEELS: Novitec Rosso NF3

Let’s face it – most people will never be able to own a Ferrari in their lifetime.  Therefore, it is a fair conclusion that even less people will have the means to purchase Novitec Rosso aftermarket parts for their Ferrari.

WHEELS: Saxon by Redbourne Wheels

Contrary to popular opinion, people who drive high end cars don’t necessarily have the money to spend for really expensive wheel and tire packages.  Nor do those same people want to spend over $5k for wheels and tires even if they had the money.
TSW wheels have been around for a long time and as of [...]

WHEELS: HRE 790R

Even with the latest advances in wheel technology and the latest trend in monoblock style wheels, there’s something to be said for a super clean three-piece mesh wheel that is done perfectly.

WHEELS: Platinum Motorsport’s Agetro C-F100

I admit it – I’m a sucker for multi-spoke wheels.  Especially these wheels from Platinum Motorsport in Los Angeles.
They basically look good on all cars over $80,000 – from Range Rovers to big body Benz’s.  If you want to be really unique, you can personalize your rims by doing custom paint colors to match your mood.
