Nice pictures of the car! This is rare color and I haven't see many with this color. Waiting for the new pictures with upgrades. 340mm discs are big one, especially for TS. What is their thickness? From what car are they or they are aftermarket rotors with custom made bells? I want to see close look of this package. The original discs on 166 are 310mm so these 340mm are on the big side for these calipers. Did your pads have full contact area with the discs?

The first set of 17" wheels look a lot like the Stilauto Ghibli. I don't like them that much, but I still bought a well used set  :facepalm::D  ...

 

I like your mods. I think I can speak for everyone in here and say that we want pics of the brake upgrade!

First 17" was Alessio Carrera, i like them but always wanted 18". Handling on 17" is much better so Arospeeds is sold. Brakes is not installed because i'm saving money for 330 front and 295 rear discs.

It's plan to paint the whole car,it need a refresh.
