F50 Tires, Wheels
The most difficult job on a supercar is handled by the tires. They are the
chief ingredient contributing to the phenominal 1.1g+ of grip the F50 is capable of.
The F50 tires were designed exclusively for the F50. They are best described as a street
legal version of the Formula 1 rain tire. Manufactured by Goodyear, they have been given
the designation Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-Fiorano (Fiorano is the name of Ferraris' private test
track).
The wheels are a magnesium alloy and feature a single nut central attachment. They
were designed with and are built by Speedline.
