Thought I would show one of the tires removed on my 1966 Ferrari GTB/C by CMC. I removed the left rear tire and you can see the rotor that spins along with the two brake calipers, you also see the coilover shock that works. The 1966 model year was the first year that did not come with wire wheels due to the increased power output the wire wheels were collapsing.

Yep, pretty damn cool! Love it when wheels can be safely removed. 😀 😀 I understand the need for more robust rims, of course, but you must admit... wires looked a bit nicer. 😎 😎
