The custom Murciélago "Bumble Bee" might be the only ride that can touch wheelsandmore's latest supercar creation. Their revamped 2012 Ferrari 599 GTO not only does it have distinct, custom wheels, but it also boasts a roaring V-12 engine thanks to a new exhaust system and features an adjustable suspension.

The wheelsandmore 599 GTO was fitted with custom tailored three-piece 6Sporz² ultra light forged wheels. Each of the 599 GTO wheels was assembled by hand to ensure the utmost in quality, then given a black powder coated face and yellow barrel. Due to the immense power produced by the 599 GTO’s V-12 engine, a staggered 9 x 21 front and 12.5 x 21 rear fitment was chosen to ensure the proper amount of grip at the rear.

The wheels were also fitted with 245/30/21 front and 345/25/21 rear Hankook S1Evo ultra high-performance tires for maximum traction. Because each wheel is made using an advanced forging process, wheelsandmore was able to keep the weight to a minimum and not affect the overall performance of the car compared to the stock wheel and tire setup.
