2015 Ferrari captured a broad slice of the modern exotic market, from mid-engine V8 cars like the 458 Italia and 458 Spider to the track-focused 458 Speciale, the grand-touring California T and F12 Berlinetta, the four-seat FF, and the halo-level LaFerrari. That range brought meaningful tire variation with eleven distinct sizes spread across seven models, and the choice is driven mainly by model-specific front and rear fitment rather than bias-ply versus radial construction, since every size here is a radial. Some models share sizes, but others use unique staggered combinations, so the first step is confirming your exact model and then matching the correct front and rear size pair.
Which Tire Size Is Right for Your 2015 Ferrari
2015 Ferrari vehicles use eleven tire sizes, and they vary significantly by model rather than carrying one shared fitment across the whole lineup. Because these sizes span both 19-inch and 20-inch rims, the real decision starts with confirming your exact model and whether you are choosing the correct front and rear pairing for that wheel diameter. Understanding that distinction before choosing a product saves time and helps ensure the right match.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): 458 Italia, 458 Spider, FF|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
235/35R20 is a metric radial size with a 235 millimeter section width, a 35-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. It is available from Nitto and BFGoodrich in Blackwall form, with speed ratings that vary by product between W and Y, carrying top-speed ceilings of 112 mph and 186-plus mph. This size is specific to the 458 Italia, 458 Spider, and FF rather than the full 2015 Ferrari range. It suits owners who need the correct 20-inch front fitment for those models and want to compare brand preference and speed-rating differences within the same basic size.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): 458 Italia, 458 Spider, FF|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
295/35R20 is a metric radial size with a 295 millimeter section width, a 35-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. Nitto offers this size in Blackwall form with a W speed rating, which carries a 112 mph ceiling. This size is specific to the 458 Italia, 458 Spider, and FF rather than universal across 2015 Ferrari models. It is the matching wide 20-inch rear fitment for those applications, so the main priority is pairing it correctly with the proper front size for your model.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): 458 Speciale, California T, FF|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
245/35R20 is a metric radial size with a 245 millimeter section width, a 35-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. It is available from BFGoodrich and Nitto in Blackwall form, with W speed ratings carrying a 112 mph ceiling, and BFGoodrich products in this size fit rims from 8 to 9.5 inches wide. This size is specific to the 458 Speciale, California T, and FF rather than every 2015 Ferrari. It is a useful choice to confirm carefully because it appears on different Ferrari platforms that do not all use the same rear tire size.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): 458 Speciale|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
305/30R20 is a metric radial size with a 305 millimeter section width, a 30-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. It is available from Nitto and Pro-Trac with Blackwall, RWL, and Redline sidewall styles, and the Nitto version carries a W speed rating with a 112 mph ceiling. This size is specific to the 458 Speciale and is not shared across the rest of the 2015 Ferrari lineup. It makes the strongest case for buyers who need the exact Speciale rear size and want to balance a more understated sidewall look against a more custom visual treatment.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): California T|Construction: Radial|Rim: 19 in
245/40R19 is a metric radial size with a 245 millimeter section width, a 40-series aspect ratio, and a 19-inch rim diameter. BFGoodrich offers this size in Blackwall form, with speed ratings that vary by product between W and Y, carrying top-speed ceilings of 112 mph and 186-plus mph, and fitments on 8 to 9.5 inch rims. This size is specific to the California T and serves as one of that model's 19-inch fitments rather than a year-wide Ferrari size. It is the right choice for California T owners running the 19-inch wheel package and wanting to stay with that rim diameter.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): California T, FF|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
285/35R20 is a metric radial size with a 285 millimeter section width, a 35-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. It is available from BFGoodrich, Nitto, and Pro-Trac in Blackwall and RWL sidewall styles, with speed ratings that vary by product between W and Y, carrying top-speed ceilings of 112 mph and 186-plus mph; BFGoodrich products in this size fit 9.5 to 11 inch rims. This size is specific to the California T and FF rather than the full 2015 Ferrari range. It is the correct 20-inch rear size for those applications, so owners should confirm whether their car uses the 19-inch or 20-inch wheel set before choosing it.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): California T|Construction: Radial|Rim: 19-in rim
285/40R19 is a metric radial size with a 285 millimeter section width, a 40-series aspect ratio, and a 19-inch rim diameter. Blackwall radial products exist for this California T rear size, matching the model's 19-inch fitment theme. This size is specific to the California T and is not shared with the rest of the 2015 Ferrari lineup. It is the rear companion to the California T's 245/40R19 front size, so owners should confirm they are staying with the full 19-inch staggered setup.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): F12 Berlinetta|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
255/35R20 is a metric radial size with a 255 millimeter section width, a 35-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. It is available from BFGoodrich and Nitto in Blackwall form, with speed ratings that vary by product between W and Y, carrying top-speed ceilings of 112 mph and 186-plus mph; BFGoodrich products in this size fit rims from 8.5 to 10 inches wide. This size is specific to the F12 Berlinetta rather than the broader 2015 Ferrari model range. It is the correct 20-inch front fitment for that V12 grand tourer, making wheel-width confirmation especially important before final selection.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): F12 Berlinetta|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20 in
315/35R20 is a metric radial size with a 315 millimeter section width, a 35-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. Nitto offers this size in Blackwall form with a W speed rating, which carries a 112 mph ceiling. This size is specific to the F12 Berlinetta and is not used across the rest of the 2015 Ferrari range. It is the matching wide rear fitment for the F12's staggered setup, so it should be chosen as part of the correct front-and-rear pair rather than by width alone.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): LaFerrari|Construction: Radial|Rim: 19-in rim
265/30R19 is a metric radial size with a 265 millimeter section width, a 30-series aspect ratio, and a 19-inch rim diameter. This LaFerrari-specific front size follows the same modern radial format used throughout the 2015 Ferrari range. It is specific to LaFerrari and does not interchange across the other models covered here. Owners should treat it as part of a highly specialized staggered combination and confirm the complete wheel and tire package before moving to product selection.
Year(s): 2015|Fit(s): LaFerrari|Construction: Radial|Rim: 20-in rim
345/30R20 is a metric radial size with a 345 millimeter section width, a 30-series aspect ratio, and a 20-inch rim diameter. This extra-wide radial size serves as the rear fitment for LaFerrari and carries a far more specialized application than the sizes shared by other 2015 Ferrari models. It is specific to LaFerrari and is not a general Ferrari fitment for the year. Buyers should approach it as a model-exclusive rear size that must be matched to the car's exact front tire and wheel configuration.
Seven Ferrari models are covered for 2015, spanning mid-engine sports cars, front-engine grand tourers, a four-seat shooting brake, and a hybrid halo car. Tire size does vary by model, and in several cases by wheel package as well, so year and make alone are not enough to choose correctly. Select your model below to narrow the fitment history and see the tire sizes that apply to that specific Ferrari.
2015 Ferrari 458 Italia
The 458 Italia was Ferrari's benchmark naturally aspirated mid-engine V8 berlinetta, known for sharp steering and a highly focused chassis. Its tires mount on 20-inch rims front and rear, using a staggered setup that it shares with the 458 Spider and one FF fitment combination.
The 458 Speciale took the basic 458 formula in a more track-oriented direction, with lighter weight, sharper responses, and a more aggressive overall character. Its tires mount on 20-inch rims front and rear, but its staggered sizing is unique compared with the standard 458 models.
The 458 Spider brought the 458's naturally aspirated V8 experience to a retractable-hardtop convertible format without changing its core supercar mission. Like the Italia, it uses 20-inch rims front and rear with the same staggered tire pairing.
The California T was Ferrari's more relaxed grand-touring convertible, blending everyday usability with front-engine Ferrari character. It appears here with both 19-inch and 20-inch staggered fitments, so California T owners should confirm their wheel diameter before selecting tires.
The F12 Berlinetta was Ferrari's front-engine V12 flagship grand tourer, combining long-hood proportions with very serious performance. Its tires mount on 20-inch rims front and rear, with a broad staggered setup tailored specifically to the F12.
The FF stood apart as Ferrari's four-seat shooting brake, built to combine high speed with greater passenger and luggage versatility than the brand's traditional two-seat cars. It uses 20-inch rims, but the exact front and rear size combination overlaps with several other Ferrari models rather than following one FF-only pattern.
LaFerrari sat at the top of the 2015 Ferrari range as the marque's hybrid halo car, pairing advanced technology with highly specialized chassis tuning. Its staggered setup mixes a 19-inch front rim with a 20-inch rear rim, making exact size confirmation especially important.
Twenty-five products are available across eleven tire sizes for 2015 Ferrari vehicles. 235/35R20, 295/35R20, 245/35R20, 245/40R19, 285/35R20, 255/35R20, and 315/35R20 come in radial Blackwall options from BFGoodrich and/or Nitto, while 305/30R20 adds Pro-Trac RWL and Redline choices. Confirm your exact size pair first, and note that speed ratings can vary between products within the same size.
These FAQs focus on the staggered size combinations used across the 2015 Ferrari range, the difference between 19-inch and 20-inch applications, available sidewall and brand choices, and the storage and inspection habits that matter on low-mileage exotic cars.
Size Basics & Fitment
What tire sizes fit 2015 Ferrari vehicles?
2015 Ferrari vehicles use eleven sizes across seven models: 235/35R20 and 295/35R20 for the 458 Italia and 458 Spider, with the same pair also appearing on one FF fitment; 245/35R20 and 305/30R20 for the 458 Speciale; 245/40R19 and 285/40R19 or 245/35R20 and 285/35R20 for the California T; 255/35R20 and 315/35R20 for the F12 Berlinetta; and 265/30R19 with 345/30R20 for LaFerrari. Rim diameters span both 19 and 20 inches depending on model and axle position.
That spread means a 2015 Ferrari owner should identify the exact model before looking at products, and in some cases confirm the wheel package as well. California T owners especially need to verify whether the car is on the 19-inch or 20-inch combination, while LaFerrari owners must account for a mixed-diameter setup. On any model with staggered fitment, front and rear sizes should be treated as a matched pair rather than selected independently.
What does 235/35R20 mean on a 2015 Ferrari tire?
On a 2015 Ferrari, 235/35R20 is a metric radial size. The 235 is the nominal section width in millimeters, 35 is the aspect ratio, R means radial construction, and 20 is the wheel diameter in inches. Within the 2015 Ferrari range, that size appears on the 458 Italia, 458 Spider, and FF as a 20-inch fitment. Products in this size come in Blackwall form and carry either W or Y speed ratings depending on the tire chosen.
For an owner, the code tells you both the physical tire format and the wheel diameter it belongs on. It does not mean every 2015 Ferrari uses that size, and it does not automatically confirm the rear tire that should accompany it. The smartest next step is to verify whether your car is a 458 Italia, 458 Spider, or FF, then confirm the matching rear size before comparing brands or speed ratings.
Do all 2015 Ferrari models use the same tire size?
No. 2015 Ferrari models use different front and rear tire combinations across the range, and the lineup includes both 19-inch and 20-inch rim diameters. The 458 Italia and 458 Spider share 235/35R20 front and 295/35R20 rear sizes, while the 458 Speciale, California T, F12 Berlinetta, FF, and LaFerrari each introduce other combinations. Some sizes overlap between models, but there is no single year-wide Ferrari tire fitment.
That matters because year and make are only the starting point here. A California T owner can easily choose the wrong tire by assuming all cars in the range use 20-inch wheels, and an FF owner can make the same mistake by assuming its size pair matches only one shared application. Confirm the model first, then verify front versus rear and 19-inch versus 20-inch before narrowing down to brand, sidewall look, or speed rating.
Buying the Right Tire
What sidewall styles are available for 2015 Ferrari tires?
Most 2015 Ferrari sizes here are available as Blackwall radials, which is the most natural visual fit for a modern Ferrari. The main exceptions are 305/30R20 and 285/35R20, where Pro-Trac offerings add RWL, and 305/30R20 also has a Redline option. Those alternate sidewall looks stand apart from the understated appearance most owners expect on a 2015 Ferrari supercar or grand tourer.
If your priority is keeping the car visually close to its original modern exotic presentation, Blackwall is the straightforward choice. RWL or Redline can appeal to an owner building a more customized look, but they change the overall appearance more noticeably than the tire's basic dimensions suggest. Before choosing by style alone, make sure the size itself is correct for your model and axle, then compare the sidewall treatments available within that exact fitment.
What brands make tires for 2015 Ferrari vehicles?
BFGoodrich, Nitto, and Pro-Trac cover the available 2015 Ferrari sizes here. BFGoodrich appears across 235/35R20, 245/35R20, 245/40R19, 255/35R20, and 285/35R20; Nitto covers 235/35R20, 245/35R20, 255/35R20, 285/35R20, 295/35R20, 305/30R20, and 315/35R20; and Pro-Trac appears in 285/35R20 and 305/30R20. Brand choice therefore depends heavily on which Ferrari model and axle position you are fitting.
A buyer with a common shared size such as 245/35R20 has more room to compare brands than someone with a specialized rear size like 315/35R20. That can affect not only tread choice but also sidewall appearance and speed-rating options within the same size. Start by confirming the exact size pair your model uses, then see which brands overlap in that fitment so you are making a meaningful comparison rather than mixing options from different applications.
What is the difference between Nitto NT555 G2 and BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A for the 2015 Ferrari?
On shared 2015 Ferrari sizes such as 235/35R20, 245/35R20, and 255/35R20, both Nitto NT555 G2 and BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A appear as Blackwall radials, but there are specification differences. The BFGoodrich Phenom T/A carries a Y speed rating in those sizes, while the Nitto NT555 G2 carries a W rating. Where load figures are present, the BFGoodrich Phenom T/A also states 1,389 pounds at 50 psi in 235/35R20, 1,521 pounds at 50 psi in 245/35R20, and 1,609 pounds at 50 psi in 255/35R20.
That means the comparison is not just about brand name; it also involves the exact spec package tied to the size you need. If your 2015 Ferrari uses one of those overlapping sizes, the better approach is to compare the tire's speed rating, published load information, and wheel-width compatibility where shown, then decide which set of characteristics suits your intended use. Keep the comparison size-specific, because those same two series do not overlap across every Ferrari fitment in the range.
Fitting & Setup
What rim width do 2015 Ferrari tires require?
Several 2015 Ferrari sizes include wheel-width guidance. 235/35R20 and 245/35R20 fit 8 to 9.5 inch rims, 245/40R19 also fits 8 to 9.5 inch rims, 255/35R20 fits 8.5 to 10 inch rims, and 285/35R20 fits 9.5 to 11 inch rims. Those figures apply to the tire size itself rather than to every wheel Ferrari used across the full model range.
Rim width matters because the correct tire can still perform poorly or mount incorrectly on the wrong wheel width. If your Ferrari carries aftermarket wheels or a non-original wheel package, compare the wheel's measured width against the acceptable range for the exact front or rear tire size you need. That step is especially important on staggered setups, where the front and rear wheels usually differ and each axle has to be checked separately.
Do 2015 Ferrari tires require inner tubes?
2015 Ferrari tires in these sizes are modern radial designs, and one 285/35R20 product is explicitly marked TL for tubeless use. The rest follow modern performance tire sizing and construction conventions, with no tube-type markings appearing in these fitments. Nothing here points toward tube-type applications in the way an older bias-ply or specialty vintage tire might.
Even so, an owner should confirm the marking on the exact tire and wheel being used, especially if the car has non-original wheels or a specialty build. Tubeless tires still depend on a sound wheel, proper valve hardware, and a good bead seat to hold pressure correctly. On a modern Ferrari, the practical concern is usually wheel condition and correct mounting practice rather than adding tubes to a standard radial fitment.
Can the original 2015 Ferrari wheels be used with all tire sizes?
No, because 2015 Ferrari fitments are model-specific and not all sizes share the same rim diameter. Some models use only 20-inch wheels, the California T can use either 19-inch or 20-inch staggered combinations, and LaFerrari mixes a 19-inch front with a 20-inch rear. Even where multiple models share a 20-inch diameter, that does not mean every width works on every original wheel.
The safe approach is to match the exact tire size to the wheel diameter and wheel width already on the car. If the wheel set is original, identify the model and axle position first; if the wheel set has been changed, measure the wheel and compare it to the tire's acceptable width range where available. Diameter compatibility is only the first checkpoint, not the whole fitment answer.
Maintenance, Storage & Longevity
How should I store a 2015 Ferrari when the tires are fitted?
A stored 2015 Ferrari should be kept in a cool, dry, dark space away from direct sunlight, electric motors, battery chargers, welders, and other ozone-producing equipment that can accelerate rubber aging. Maintain normal inflation pressure, keep the tires off damp ground, and move the car periodically if practical so the same contact patch is not carrying the load for months at a time. Modern radials resist flat-spotting better than older bias-ply tires, but long static storage can still affect ride quality.
For a collector Ferrari that sits between drives, the goal is preserving both the tire structure and the wheel finish. If the car will remain parked for an extended season, some owners use cradles or stands to reduce prolonged loading, but the tires should still be checked before the car returns to use. A short inspection before the first drive of the season often catches pressure loss, sidewall aging, or a valve issue before it becomes a roadside problem.
How long do tires on a 2015 Ferrari typically last?
On a 2015 Ferrari, tire age usually matters more than mileage because many exotic cars cover limited annual miles. A sensible rule is to begin evaluating tires carefully once they reach about five to seven years of age and to treat around ten years as a serious replacement point regardless of tread depth. The DOT date code on the tire sidewall is the key reference for age, not the model year of the car.
That guideline is especially important on a Ferrari because a car can look fresh, have plenty of remaining tread, and still be riding on old rubber. Heat cycles, storage conditions, and exposure to sunlight or ozone can shorten useful life even when the car is seldom driven. If the tire's age and condition are drifting apart, choose the more conservative interpretation and plan replacement around age, inspection results, and how the car is actually used.
How often should tires on a 2015 Ferrari be inspected?
Tires on a 2015 Ferrari should be inspected before every drive and again before any longer highway outing. Look for visible cracking, punctures, cuts, bulges, unusual shoulder wear, and any sign that a tire has been run underinflated. Pressure should be checked cold, and because these cars use wide staggered fitments, both axles deserve separate attention rather than a quick visual once-over.
A short local drive in a Ferrari can mask problems that become much more serious at sustained speed or when the car is fully warmed up. Make tire inspection part of the same habit as checking fluids, brakes, and battery condition on a low-use performance car. If the car has been parked for weeks, add a close look at the valve stems and the spare or mobility equipment before heading out.
Restoration & Authenticity
What tires were originally fitted to the 2015 Ferrari 458 Italia?
A 2015 Ferrari 458 Italia belongs to the modern supercar era, so radial construction is the authentic baseline rather than bias-ply. Within the 2015 Ferrari range, the 458 Italia uses 235/35R20 front and 295/35R20 rear sizing, both on 20-inch wheels. That gives owners a clear starting point for preserving the car's original stance and staggered layout, even when comparing current replacement brands.
If originality matters, the main concern is staying with the correct size format, rim diameter, and overall modern Blackwall presentation rather than chasing a vintage-style appearance. Ferrari often varied details by market and equipment package, so concours-minded owners should still verify factory delivery specifications through Ferrari records, marque specialists, or club resources. That extra step matters most when the car has had wheel changes or prior tire substitutions during its life.
Does correct tire fitment matter for showing a 2015 Ferrari?
Yes. On a shown 2015 Ferrari, judges and knowledgeable enthusiasts will notice whether the tire size, construction type, and sidewall appearance suit the model and era. A modern Ferrari should present as a modern radial application, and a mismatched front-to-rear pairing, incorrect rim diameter, or unusually custom sidewall treatment can distract from authenticity even if the tire physically mounts.
That does not mean every event uses the same judging standard, but size correctness and visual appropriateness are common expectations. A California T on the wrong 19-inch versus 20-inch combination or a 458 wearing a non-standard appearance treatment would invite questions quickly. Before a judged event, confirm the exact axle sizes, keep the sidewall style consistent with the car's original character, and check with marque clubs or event organizers for class-specific standards.
What is the difference between BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp 2 and BFGoodrich g-Force Comp 2 A/S for the 2015 Ferrari?
For 2015 Ferrari sizes where both appear, such as 245/35R20, 245/40R19, and 255/35R20, BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp 2 and BFGoodrich g-Force Comp 2 A/S share Blackwall radial construction and the same basic wheel-diameter fitment. They also share the same published rim-width ranges in overlapping sizes, such as 8 to 9.5 inches for 245/35R20 and 245/40R19, and 8.5 to 10 inches for 255/35R20. Weight differs slightly between the two series in those shared sizes.
For a buyer comparing them on a Ferrari, the useful takeaway is that both can cover the same fundamental fitment envelope while differing in exact product character and specification details. If your priority is keeping a uniform appearance and correct sizing, either series can satisfy that baseline in the overlapping sizes. The next step is to compare the specific product details for your exact front or rear fitment rather than assuming the whole series behaves identically in every size.
Safety & Road Use
Are 2015 Ferrari tires safe for highway driving?
Yes, the available 2015 Ferrari tires here are modern radial performance sizes, and where speed ratings appear they carry W or Y markings. W corresponds to 112 mph, while Y corresponds to 186-plus mph. That said, safe highway use depends on more than the letter on the sidewall: age, inflation pressure, condition, wheel integrity, and proper front-to-rear pairing all matter as much as the rating itself on a high-performance Ferrari.
For normal highway use, the car's overall mechanical condition is usually the more immediate concern than the top end of the tire's speed symbol. A 2015 Ferrari may be capable of far more than routine interstate speed, but no tire rating excuses cracked sidewalls, old rubber, or incorrect pressure. Treat the speed rating as one part of the safety picture, and inspect the tires carefully before any sustained road trip or spirited drive.
What inflation pressure should I use for 2015 Ferrari tires?
Inflation pressure on a 2015 Ferrari should start with the factory recommendation for the exact model and wheel package, because the lineup uses different sizes and staggered combinations. Some sizes also carry published maximum load and pressure references, such as 235/35R20 at 1,389 pounds at 50 psi, 245/35R20 at 1,521 pounds at 50 psi, 245/40R19 at 1,653 pounds at 50 psi, and 255/35R20 at 1,609 pounds at 50 psi. Those figures describe the tire's rated limit, not the everyday pressure every Ferrari should be set to.
The important point is not to transfer one pressure assumption from one Ferrari model or tire size to another. A California T on 19-inch tires should not be treated the same as an F12 Berlinetta on 20-inch tires, and front and rear pressures often differ on staggered performance cars. Use the vehicle placard or owner's literature as the primary guide, then make sure the tire itself is in good condition and capable of holding that pressure consistently.
What should I check before taking a 2015 Ferrari on a longer drive?
Before a longer drive in a 2015 Ferrari, inspect each tire for cracks, cuts, punctures, bulges, uneven wear, and any sign of impact damage from potholes or curbing. Check cold pressures at all four corners, confirm that the front and rear sizes are properly matched to the car, and look over the valve stems and wheel lips for damage or leakage. Because these cars often run wide, low-profile tires, even minor damage deserves attention.
Tires are only one part of the pre-drive routine, but they are an easy place to catch problems early. Add a quick review of brakes, fluid levels, battery condition, and any warning lights before committing to distance. If the car has been parked for a while, spend a little extra time checking age and pressure stability, since a Ferrari that feels fine on a short neighborhood loop may reveal a tire issue only after sustained speed and heat buildup.
