As I mentioned here (http://saleenforums.soec.org/showthread.php?t=21230), I acquired some Speedline's that had the classic cracking of the aluminum inserts. A friend of mine discovered that the '95+ Ferrari F355 also had magnesium Speedline's from the factory that used the same inserts as the Saleen model wheel (Speedline 1908).
StickyRX (http://www.stickyrxrs.com/ferrari-f355-wheel-inserts/) sells their version of 23mm insert that the Saleen wheels used. They also modified them to resist cracking by removing the upper lip of the insert.
We used a hammer and a socket to pound out the old ones and a hydraulic press to install the new ones. So far they're holding up.
