355 Rear Alloy wanted.

[MUR44Y]

Hello,

I have recently bought myself a Ferrari 355 GTS and upon changing the tyres this week discovered one of my rear wheels is damaged quite badly on the inner edge and cracked.

Does anyone have a spare rear wheel for sale or know where to find one? I can see a few front alloys on eBay at circa £500 but no rear ones.

I presume these wheels can't be repaired?!?

Any assistance is much appreciated,

Thanks!

First Aid Wheels in West Hampstead charged me very little to repair a broken alloy wheel

Few things to note....they come in 2 colours - a dull silver and a bright silver so make sure you know which one.

There is a rubber gasket on the inside of the hub - don't throw it away - its worth a fortune!!!!

They are actually made of magnesium so make sure anyone doing a repair is experienced in doing that.

There are replicas about - nothing wrong with them but they are alloy and heavier so buy in pairs if going down that route.

If not already I'd join clubscuderia.co.uk and ask on there - sure there will be someone on there whose got some lying about! :-)

Part# is 166476

Thank you - appreciate the help! Will get looking at the repair option and join club scuderia as keen to buy a non broken / fixed one too.

The "goto" place for Magnesium 355 wheel painting is this place in Wrexham....

I have a friend (in SW Scotland) who has a fully refurbished 355 rear wheel which he could be persuaded to part with.
Happy to put you in touch but unsure how to contact you directly?

Hello

I have a rear F355 wheel for sale, slight damage on edge of rim (repairable). I have too many car bits cluttering my room and house, also I have a front with original Pirelli tyre on it that has not seen the road once.

PM me if interested?

Sorry for tardy response!!! I got sorted and have been enjoying the car in all weather the past few weeks. Appreciate the response though!

I’m resurrecting this thread as I’m in need of a rear wheel now too. My car’s in for a service and after removing the rear tyres to replace them, a suspected crack on one wheel has proved to be one of several cracks and not repairable.
Anyone have one lying around?!

Has anyone seen any of the alloy replica wheels about?

There's one on ebay from a recognised breaker (used them myself).

Eurospares sell them refurbished too but obviously more expensive

The advantage of the rerfurbished one is that being magneseum they are a complete pain to get repaired/refinished properly.
