    The damage doesnt look so bad.... Just kidding. Nice car!

    Would you be interested in having it repaired? We have had really good experience with having some of the 2 pc AMG wheels repaired. We use Alloy Wheel Solutions where I work.

    PM me if I can Help

    Chromed rims are very expensive to repair plus repair shops will not guarantee the outcome, you might want to check with some of the F-Chat sponsors or the Tire Rack for a replacement.

    They have a section for Ferrari wheels and list a price of $750 for a wheel from a 355 or $650 with exchange. They ask that people call them to see if they have anything in stock. Also, be sure to find out if they are used / refurnished or if they are brand new. I am sure there are other internet providers that can sell you a Ferrari wheel. I have not used them but their prices appear to be in line with other suppliers for wheels of more typical cars.

    Good luck,

    No Ferrari at this time but you never know.

    PS - I just realized your wheels are not stock, so this may not help. Good luck though.

    You can also try wheelsamerica locally for repair possibilities.
    They also carry a stock of replacement wheels.
    Check AAA autosalvage in FW as well.

    I do not know if you ever found a replacement for your tire but if you want to get an opinion if the rim is fixable, try Star Tire here in Dallas. They do repair work as well as refinishing tires. I had them refurbish the rims on my Alfa and they look brand new. They were reasonably priced, had a fairly quick turn around and did a great job. They are located on the east side of Harry Hines just south of Walnut Hill Road. They also have experience with Ferrari wheels.

    Good luck and I hope this helps.
