Hello,

My M20G has found itself in need of a new set of wheels during its annual. The A&P found corrosion on the wheels and said they all needed to be replaced. As such, I’m looking for a 40-87 nose wheel (cannot find used options anywhere online) and 2x of the 40-86 main gear wheels. If anyone has a lead on some, it would be greatly appreciated. Looking to purchase together or separately. (I did see 40-86 options on eBay).
 

My A&P called Cleveland and clarified that it does need to be 40-87, Variants such as 40-87C are not compatible based on his conversation. 
 

Thank you in advance!

I think the BE-55 Barron nose wheel is the same. I bought a spare from a lady that had a Barron

After looking through the Parker/Cleveland manual it seems like the Beechcraft planes use different variants of the 40-87, from my understanding we can’t use the 40-87C

Stockmarket.aero

Some of their stuff is a paid script. 
I work with company Torque Aero that can source most parts through their paid services. Internet can only take you so far sometimes. Listings will give you inventories of who has what. This level of Stock market aero leaves a lot to be researched still. Between Google, Stockmarket, and Torque I can find most parts. I’ve been using the -87A wheel off a Barron for the last 10y. My factory magnesium wheels were shot.

Ever buy anything through this service?  I usually look for a vendor without the RFQ and PO model.

All the time. However, I don’t use the RFQ function. I make sure the have at least one in inventory then call them directly. Most are real companies that want to sell parts. 
I’ve bought parts for various airplanes from the  Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand. England, Canada.

So you use Stockmarket.aero just to see who has the part you need, and then go directly to that vendor?  Next time I need a part, I'll try it.  Thanks.
