Wheelsandmore: Custom 8C (based on Alfa Romeo 8C) news

Press release...

Wheelsandmore presents its tuning program for the coupe and convertible version of the exciting Alfa Romeo 8C series.

With delicate surgery the noble tuner puts the 2-seated V8 coupe in the right light and provides additional driving pleasure and extra horsepower with their high-end quality components.

Due to an ecu upgrade, combined with a hand-made exhaust system with remote-able exhaust valves, Wheelsandmore elicits the beautiful sportscoupe additional 30 horsepower and increases the torque around 40nm.

The Alfa Romeo 8C got a further performance improvement through the matte-black, individualized 6Sporz˛ ultralight forged wheels. The weight-optimized multipiece wheels are sizing 9.0x21 inches on the front axle with tires 245/30/21 and on the drive axle stately 12.5x21 inches with 345/25/21 S1Evo tires from Hankook.

A perfect look and a comfortable everyday use ensures a compression and rebound adjustable coilover suspension, which is also available for vehicles with oem Skyhook suspension. The coilover suspension is offered with a limited 5 years warranty.

The presented conversion was totally wrapped in matte white foil with a red and black Wheelsandmore design stripe. Wheelsandmore internally called their Alfa Romeo 8 C conversion "Senza-Cromo", because all chrome mounted parts were also swathed in matte black.

$250,000 no? Worth it. Even of it is inferior to an Italia.

Just gorgeous.
