Black Widow Treatment for Ferrari 458 Italia Spider


Do you know that now, the latest Ferrari 458 Italia program ‘Perfetto’ has Black Widow characteristics?

Well, the 458 Italia Spider now transforms to be a poisonous Black Widow with the help of a German tuning firm, Wheelsandmore.

Actually, the tuning house is only applying very slight styling changes into the Spider. The tuner makes use of carbon fiber parts to create the rear diffuser, fuel cap, rear fog lamp frames, mirrors and spoiler fins. On the other hand, in order to decorate the interior of the spider and the trunk and engine compartments, the company utilizes the same lightweight materials.

The company is also ready if there are any requests from buyers who want to replace the wheel housings and the whole under- floor with special carbon- fiber parts. It is said by the tuner that the 458 Italia Spider’weight is now reduced by around 30 kg or 66 pounds due to the use of all elements of the ‘Perfetto’ program.

Apart of those materials’ and components’ changes, the German tuner also equipped the 458 Italia Spider with new tailpipes and 21-inch forged rims with Hankook S1Evo tires size 245/30 on the front axle and 345/25 on the rear.

Wheelsandmore fitted the Spider with the V8 engine’s that is good for delivering output from 562 horses or 570 PS and 539 Nm or 398 lb- ft of power to 638 ponies or roughly 647 PS and 468 lb- ft of peak torque. Thanks to the use of new manifolds, a valve-controlled sports exhaust system, a software upgrade and a carbon-airbox

Unfortunately, so far that’s all the news comes from Wheelsandmore. The tuner has not yet said anything about the new Black Widow Spider program’s pricing details.
