Looking for Cup 1 wheel
The tyre fitter found a crack in one of my front wheels today so I need a 7.5J 17" Cup 1 wheel; Porsche part number 965 362 164 05 (with pressure sensor holes) - as fitted to earlier GTS cars. If you have one, or know where to get one at reasonable cost please let me know.

Good luck with that! Rare and fairly hard to find... Do you have the tools to remove the Tire Pressure Monitor system? Doubtful that any place you would send it would have that either.
Most wheel repair places can fix cracks easily! I have had two wheels repaired and one of them was pretty bad. The place that fixed mine was up in Dallas, but I can't remember the name...
Several folks here have had wheels repaired in the last few months IIRC.

Jeez, it's an epidemic:

I didn't post in that thread, but there was a crack in one of my rear Cup I's that I then had repaired and refinished:
I have another set of unrefinished Cup I's with RDK that might be for sale but I don't want to part the set.
FWIW, you don't/shouldn't need special tools to remove the RDK sensor, a bigass channellock will work to undo the threaded ring nut. (Unless it's really corroded or something....)
The crack pre-repair:
