19" wheels on a 3200

[jpl]

Well,
i am the portuguese dealer for two wheel brands and i was thinking of putting 19" wheels on my 3200.
Does anyone have experience with 19"?
What wheel and tire sizes do you recomend?
thank you

Hi,
I am not sure that the 3200 will handle well with 19 inch alloys,but i would guess that you will need to ensure that the production of the alloys conforms to the speed rating and torques of the 3200.
I would hate for you to be blasting down the road and the wheels deform due to stress levels never meant to be encountered in the alloys fitted and never tested on a maserati and lets face it not that many cars do over 130mph let alone the 180mph that a 3200 could reach.
I would like to go 19 inch on my 4200 but if i did it would be a set of genuine wheels for me personally.
all the best

There has been a few 3200's with 19's for sale recently so they do fit...Not many styles available though...

Can you help me out with sizes please?

Do a google search for Kahn wheels as they are the ones I've seen on a number of Maserati.

thank you very much to all.
As i am Team Dynamics dealer to Portugal, the factory will make a Pro Race 1.3 wheel set for the 3200.


I have found this sizes:
8.5 x 19" Front With 235/35/19 Tyres
9.5 x 19" Rear With 265/30/19 Tyres

What do u think?

I don't know whether they would be suitable but I bet the Gransport wheels would look tasty. Loz might have some ideas of where to buy a recon set
