Yeah I thought about that but although I may save some money I think it would be somewhat difficult to find a buyer for just 3 wheels unless someone wants to buy one like I was looking for. Too much of a hassle, and a lot of the people in this forum that were selling for a good price usually wanted local pick ups but either way I went this morning and payed the $956 or whatever it was for the wheel. It will take 2-3 days to get here and then I'm going to have it sent off to get powder coated then have a new tire installed and rebalanced so when I get home from my trip next week my car will be ready to go

to each his own I suppose, I can understand your thoughts on the hassle however of dealing with it all. Been there a few times myself with random things on the car.. Good luck and hope she is up and running soon for you.
