That must have looked horrible!! :ugh: Do you have a picture?Dr. Bob said:BTW, did you know that Ferrari offered those wheels in chrome as an option?
Interesting. Bazil's car has this orientation (drawing air IN) while the pix of the 348s with chrome wheels show them on backwards (drawing air OUT). :nuts:fradefa48 said:The right position of the rim is with the thinner part on the discharg side for the air when the wheel is revolving. This should help air to enter into the brakes for cooling purposes.
good eye 4kids3fish, I think Bazils wheels are on backwards!4kids3fish said:Interesting. Bazil's car has this orientation (drawing air IN) while the pix of the 348s with chrome wheels show them on backwards (drawing air OUT). :nuts:fradefa48 said:

Don't joke - you had me worried for a millisecond!! Well, worried enough to see which way they're orientated on the 348 on the official Ferrari site!! Phew - mine are on the right way.rosed37 said:good eye 4kids3fish, I think Bazils wheels are on backwards!![]()
It just means he'll have to run every 3rd lap on the track in reverse to cool off his brakes :green:

That's a bit anorakish - and if you don't understand that, ask!!fradefa48 said:That was really surprising is the fact that this problem was raised from the owner of the F40 shown in my pic "punchinthe stomach": he was watching at my Spider and just said "Your front rims are on the wrong side". I'm still surprised by his acuteness.
Don't forget to take into consideration the fact that you drive on the other side of the road ! :-? :green:Bazil said:Phew - mine are on the right way.
Hmmm - that's probably why my flux capacitor valve is on the left too... :wink:rosed37 said:Don't forget to take into consideration the fact that you drive on the other side of the road ! :-? :green:Bazil said:Phew - mine are on the right way.
