    In replacing my original tires with Hoosier slicks. I discovered that my right front wheel was leaking air. The 3 piece 17 inch Speedlines can have problems where the separate wheel pieces are joined. This particular wheel leaks at three of the bolts, enough to lose 4 lbs of pressure a day.

    I need one front 17 inch Speedline wheel or a new (used?) set of 18's.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Alex, just buy another F40, take the wheels and give me what's left... :D


    Seriously, "Four Speedline Wheels for Ferrari F40, superb condition. Goodyear Eagle tires. 800 miles." - this issue of the FML...

    Alex,
    There should be a gasket available to fix the wheel.
    If you are going on an event and need to borrow a 17 until yours gets fixed, let me know and I will disssemble one of my end tables and send it to you. :)

    Thanks Rick.

    I really appreciate the offer.

    I have sent the wheel out to see if it can be repaired. The car has the street tire set on right now so it's good to drive, but I'd like the slicks on for the Southwest Concorso at the Boulders Resort and a local club track event that will follow a couple of weeks later.
