    I am missing 3 of the inner wheel protection caps for my stock 355 wheels which I am guessing were tossed out during a tire change sometime in the past. These are Ferrari part number 167137 that they call "Rim Complete Protection" and they are the black plastic center caps that fit into the inside of the center of the wheel with an o-ring to seal them in place. I have tried to order them through the regular parts vendors but always find they are out of stock or N/A. Does anyone know where I can buy them either new or used?

    I just bought some last year new from either Ricambi or Superperformance, not sure. I can check my receipts later to confirm.

    Yes, I have all four of those large rubber sealing rings and need the inner hub center sealing caps.

    Have you tried Eurospares? Their website shows they have stock.

    I thought I had tried them, but when I went to their site just now and ordered the caps the order went through. Hopefully they don't send me a message they actually don't have them. Thanks!

    I just received an email that they only have two in stock and the third one has been special ordered and they won't ship until they receive special ordered one in a couple weeks. It's way better than them saying they are unavailable like everyone else I tried!

    Good to hear. Now I'll have to go check my wheels to see if any are missing!

    Dan,
    I checked my invoices to see where I purchased those caps part # 167137. It was Tom Vails All Ferrari parts. Hope this helps.

    I just received an update from Eurospares that they were unable to special order the one cap they did not have in stock because it is unavailable and they will send the two they have in stock. I just put in a request to Tom Vail's to see if they have the last one I need so hopefully they do.

    Tom Vail's got back to me right away and said they do not have any in stock nor can they order any. :(

    If anyone knows where I can find one more of these caps please let me know. Thanks

    I'm still looking for one more of these #167137 protection caps. If anyone has one to sell or knows where I can get a new one, please let me know. Thanks!
