They can make you the adapters. You'll pay plenty and you'll want to know the Ferrari offset since the adapters are typically an inch and might screw up wheel offset. 5x108 rim to 5x114.3 car

More like 50 or 60, but oh well.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure that base models are 4-lug, and I highly doubt there is a 4-lug ferrari. That means that you would have to do a 5-lug swap to make them work.

For what original Ferrari rims are actually worth you could probably have them custom made from Adamantium

Very true. I have a feeling he aquired a set for cheap and decided he wanted to slap them on his car.

So how much for the rims? What size bolt pattern and offset? If they are cheap enough and you like the look go for it.

Why do you want rims with pentagrams? I'd truly like to know.

Forget about getting Ferrari wheels. Forget about having custom Ferrari-style wheels made for your car. Both of these options would cost several times what your car is worth.

Shop for wheels that fit your car.

Post some pictures of wheels that you like, and people can help you find similar wheels that will fit your car. I know, you like Ferrari-style pentagram wheels, but there are a bunch of wheels that fit that description. Post the ones you like best to help us help you. Maybe someone knows of a pentagram-style wheel that fits and will post the information.
