- Replacing four wheels on a Ferrari Purosangue can cost you an absurd amount of money.
- A set of forged 22-inch front and 23-inch rears with paint finish costs $57k on one website.
- Buying four of the standard cast alloy wheels would set you back a more reasonable $7k.
Most of us have experienced that sickening feeling of misjudging a parking maneuver and grazing a previously immaculate alloy wheel against a curb. Fortunately, most scuffs can be fixed, but imagine if you spun out on some ice or while doing some dumb drifting and hit the curb hard enough to totally trash a wheel. Or all four wheels! If you were driving a Ferrari Purosangue at the time, you could be looking at a huge repair bill.

How huge depends on what kind of wheels were on your Ferrari crossover at the time. If your Purosangue was wearing the two-tone, lightweight forged alloy wheels seen on Ferrari’s promotional shots of the car, prepare to spend an average of over $14k per corner. For wheels. Wheels. And that’s before you even think about the tires or, you know, the consequences of your driving habits.
The Price of Luxury
That’s according to Scuderiaparts, whose parts catalog says a set of these staggered 22-inch front and 23-inch rear wheels for a left-hand drive model costs $57,200 including tax and delivery in Massachusetts. Millermotorcars only list one price for the wheels, and it’s £13,327 ($16,300) including VAT in the UK, which would make the total £53,308 ($65,000) if all four corners really do cost the same.

But it’s probably not the total, because if you’re replacing your wheels after an accident or if they’ve been stolen, you’re going to be needing a set of tires too, meaning the final bill – even based on Scuderia Parts’ lower price – would far exceed the $45,895 MSRP of a brand new Honda Civic Type R with forged wheels. The Type doesn’t come with forged rims, but you can buy an entire set of 20-inch, 10-spoke wheels through Honda for $3,164. In fact, that’s more than the base price of a new 2025 Toyota GR Supra that starts from $56,250.
Let’s say you do need all those accessories that go with your new Ferrari rims—things like hub logos, TPMS sensors, and weight balancers. A plain hub logo will set you back $22, while carbon fiber versions go for $213. Each TPMS sensor costs $183, and the weight balancers will cost you $12 each. All in all, you’re looking at an additional $868 in accessories alone. And that’s not including shipping and taxes, of course.
The Bill, Please
Next, you’ll need tires. If you want to get Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires for your Purosangue, you’re in for a treat. With taxes, a full set will cost you only around $3,100 from TireRack. Add installation fees, and you’re looking at about $3,650. All told, when you add up the wheels, tires, and accessories, the total bill will hover around $61,700.
The More Affordable Option: Cast Alloy Wheels—Sort Of
Like the Civic, the Purosangue comes standard with simple cast rims. And replacing them costs a fraction of buying new forged versions: Scuderiaparts will sell you a glossy silver front wheel (the cheapest option, as prices increase for other finishes) for a more palatable $1,678 and a rear for $1,944, bringing the total cost for four to $7,244, or $8,361 with shipping and taxes for MA included.

Sure, anyone who can afford $400,000 for a new Ferrari SUV isn’t going to choke on the idea of a $57k set of wheels or $61k with tires and accessories as badly as normal drivers who make regular money, but it’s still a lot of cash, and something anyone who buys one of these cars used down the line when they become more affordable might want to bear in mind.
But in other respects, buying a used Purosangue might not be as risky as buying another expensive crossover or SUV if the first owner paid for the Power15 & Maintenance service and warranty package. It provides cover for an incredible 15 years from the point of delivery – though it won’t pay to fix your curb rash…
