Hobby Design is doing a great job with their new sets of wheels. I bought the wheels for the F430GT and the quality is superb!

Re: Finally 599GTB Monolitic 20" Wheels

They look good and I've been waiting for someone to make these wheels for a very long time. However what are the strange lines that I have circled on the wheels..?? Is it just the picture or are these defects from the manufacturer..?? They don't look smooth.....

Re: Finally 599GTB Monolitic 20" Wheels

I wasn't stating that it was a problem. Just asking if the lines were there in reality or it was just the photo. It is no problem to sand and polish to remove the lines and apply a layer of good primer. I wasn't knocking the product in any way. It's nice to finally have these wheels at all.....

Re: Finally 599GTB Monolitic 20" Wheels

Im going to take a wild guess here but I believe the "lines" are because this is a master made aon a 3D printer. Also the "separate lugs and valves may just be representational to the master. Just a guess.

Correction.... yes, separate lugs and valves...

Hi,
