Ferrari F 50 Tyre Reviews

Tyres are the only part of a Ferrari F 50 that touches the road, and they have more influence on braking, wet grip, noise and ride comfort than almost any other component you can change. This page collects owner reviews and buying advice for Ferrari F 50 tyres in Australia.

What to look for in Ferrari F 50 tyres

At this level the tyre is a homologated component. Manufacturers develop specific compounds and constructions with a tyre maker and identify them with a marking on the sidewall — N-codes, K1, MC, AMG, MO and similar. Fitting an unmarked tyre in the same nominal size is not equivalent, because the marked version differs in construction, compound and sometimes in the exact dimensions.

Two things bite owners of low-kilometre cars in particular. High-performance compounds harden with age regardless of tread depth, so the DOT date code matters as much as the wear. And cars stored for long periods can develop flat spots that never fully resolve. Staggered front and rear fitments are almost universal here, so both sizes need checking before ordering.

Ferrari F 50 tyre sizes and fitment

Tyre sizes for the F 50 vary by model year, variant and wheel option, so the vehicle placard is the specification that matters. It sets out the size, the minimum load index and speed rating, and the correct pressures. You can fit a higher load index or speed rating than the placard calls for, but going below either changes the safety margin the vehicle was engineered with.

Ferrari F 50 tyre reviews from Australian owners

Every review on this page is written by someone who has actually run the tyre on their own vehicle, which is why they cover things a specification sheet cannot: how the tyre wore over 40,000 km, whether it tramlined, how loud it got as it aged, how it behaved on wet country roads at night. Filter by tyre brand or size to narrow the list, and if you have run a set on your Ferrari F 50, adding your own review helps the next owner in the same position.
