Does anyone know if you can fit 360 wheels to a 355? has anyone tried?

I didn't see any pics of it so I guess not... But I'm not an expert on that so let's see what others think

Yes I believe this could be done. The 360s wheels are 1inch larger so you would have to get a smaller profile tire to match your current F355's total diameter. I don't remember if the F355 has the sensitve anti-spin software that the 360 has. If it does changing the weight and diameter may cause this to act up and you'll have the warning light on your dash lit up.

I have heard that it can be done but involves a ton of work to recalibrate various systems to accomodate the larger tire. Suggest you check with a local Ferrari specialist or dealer.

No they're both 18". However the F355 use 225/18 fronts while the 360 use 215/18 fronts. But that doesn't matter, the 225 can fit the 360 front rims. The stud holes are identical.

i believe i've seen it once in germany (where else)
so it's very possible that i have a pic of it then, but where :-?

I have found a 308 with 360 wheels...

I am no wheel expert but I can help you by giving you some informations that I have found.

Offsets as follows:

355 Stock Front - 46.15mm
355 Stock Rear - 77.9mm

360 Stock Front - 31.5mm
360 Stock Rear - 39.0mm

360 wheels on a 355 would result in the following:

Outward movement of front wheel by 14.65mm
Outward movement of rear wheel by 38.9mm
(Both 355 & 360 wheels are the same width F&R)

wow the 360 wheels look amazing on the 355, i think they also give the car a slightly more modern look.
so will the extra distance the wheels stick out actually make them protrude from the wheel arch or will they be within a tollerable limit which would be equivalent to putting the official 355 wheel spacers on the car?

i take it the car pictured isnt yours?

 

[Dr. Bob]

That doesn't look bad...
