    beyond repair and Id hate to have to throw the other 3 wheels away. They were made by sonic tuning but they no longer carry them.

    There is a whole wheel and tire section specifically for 18in rims. That would probably be the best at trying to find a spare.

    You may find one on eBay, but it’s tough to find singles. Also ECS has alzors on sale so $450 and under gets you a full new set of basically good wheels

    Yeah I've been checking on eBay for about a year now and contacted sonic tuning. I think they may have been discontinued too long to find a spare. Ill check the alzors out though thanks

    Where is it cracked at? Wheel repair shops do exist.

    The wheel cost $100 new and they want $160 to repair so economically its not worth trying. Also the crack is on the inner lip and goes from the outside all the way down into the barrel so they may not touch it anyways. The quote I received was sight unseen.

    Perfect example of why I don't buy cheap aftermarket wheels.

    I don't understand your math either.

    The wheel was $100 but isn't available anymore. So you're comparing $160 to the cost of a whole new set. Not $160 to original purchase price.

    160 saves you from having to throw out 3 other wheels. Or throw them out and spend 450. Simple decision.

    Its not a math problem. Alloy wheel repair isn't 100% foolproof and I would rather buy all new wheels than tempt fate. No where in my op did I say I don't have money to buy new wheels. I asked if anyone had a wheel they wanted to sell. I didn't ask for advice on what I should do if no one has a wheel to offer up.

    Ok.

    Consider spending more than $400 on your next set.

    Damn. Accidental advice again.

    Yeah Id hate for any kind of ads to end up on the main B5 page. Even one targeted at B5 S4 people like my request is.

    Well, not only is there no benefit to the community, it is against audizine rules to post wanted ads outside of the classifieds. I didn't care until you got an attitude.
