Hey folks; Thinking it is time to buy my car a Christmas present - new wheels! Any thoughts on what a set of new factory OEMs should sell for? I have seen used ebay for around $1,200 (not dreaded alloy wheels either). Seems reasonable. Thoughts? thanks, Freddie
Taz (Tazandjan) has a friend who is/was selling sets of the Barchetta modular wheels for the 550. I don't know if there still any for sale. Taz?? Phil
I just snapped up a set of the new original Ferrar 550 wheels being sold by Exoticauto for $1,200 including shipping. It seemed like a great deal. They arrived in a week with each one in the original Ferrari box surrounded by another box. I was impressed by the price, the free shipping and the reasonable delivery. I plan to put a set of all-weather tires on the new wheels so I can easily switch from all-weather to dry tires as the seasons change here in Seattle. Jim V. '89 328 '00 456M GT with 550 wheels
A couple years ago I had my 550 in for service. To my surprise it had the original wheels which were under a recall. I was told that the set on my car now was the last set the factory had. For me they were no charge.
Thanks for feedback. I see an ad on ebay for new wheels from Exoticar as well - going to check them out except they don't seem to ship to Canada right now..... Merry Christmas tutti tifosi!
I bought a set from him last spring. Perfect in every respect. Shamelessly, my old ones are for sale in FerrariAds
