The f40 wheels on the laferrari look better than the oem wheels
Huracan looks dope.
That la ferrari looks way too good. Should be a factory option!!
This makes me wanna get a LaFerrari… Just to put on F40 rims.
My creation. I call the 300 GTS.
Alfa, GT-R, Porsche, and fiat all work fairly well especially the 911 … The rest are a solid no, if it were the 00s GT I think the classic wheels would work out fine on it, the i8 wheels need a bit of lip in the back and could be perfectly at home on it, as would the lambo and ferrari the lips are far too off between front and back and makes the darn cars look ugly. All the others don’t exactly fit the cars, especially mustang or corvette(crap they’re ugly).
Now do the opposite, older generation car with new wheels.
I… I don’t know what to say, I like some of them and think they should be real.
The lambo just got the same rotiform wheels like the hellaflush dudes
I only like GT-R & Mclaren mash-ups
