WTB: OEM 351 Style Msport Wheel

I need one MSport OEM wheel, don't need TPMS (style 351). Tire with 50% or more OEM tire is welcomed. Anyone have anything? Minimal curb rash ok, but no bends/cracks.

Have a cracked wheel, thinking of replacing it and keeping the repaired one as a backup.

Hey what year 550 you have? Any work? What's faster your 550 or the f430? The reason I ask because I drove an f430 and the gallardo and then I got back into my 2014 550xi with full catless exhuast and Jb stage 1 and my car felt significantly faster. P.s I. Only talking about the speed not the handling. The ferrari and lambo are on a different level with the handling.

Yeah Stage 2 JB4. And Ferrari Still feels faster. On paper, it should be faster as well since both cars are about 500hp, but the 550iX is maybe 1250 lbs heavier.

If you have a 550i, modded heavily like your, it probably could be faster in a straight line without too much work. Those catless headers would be clutch. No need for my daily 550iX; the Jb4 is plenty for the 35k miles a year I need to put on this car.

Its so cheap to have super fast cars now-a-days. GTRs running 10seconds like its running out of style.

Call Sports Car Tire and see if they have any 351's in stock. I was there last year and they had more than 10 of them. The are located in downtown Wilmington right before Gander Hill.

Thanks, I just did. Sent an E-Mail. Called this place before and they had pretty poor customer service, at least on the phone.

But this time, he emailed me back and looks like a hit. Thanks for the advice. Will post results here shortly.

Worked out well, thanks for the tip.

You are right my friend. I was just curious. The 550xi is a great daily driver.
Also, I have put the Gallardo and the 430 through some high speed and hair pin turns and let me tell you.. WOW! The lambo for some reason had a little more oversteer but was a little more predictable. The 430 was just GLUE with extreme predictability in the corners. Speed does not mean much if you can't really toss the guy in corners with absolute confidence. Oh and the sound of the V8-V10... Pure bliss!
