geckobuddy Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hey all- I have an '02 IS300 and discovered that my right front wheel has a cracked rim. Any suggestions on the best place (i.e. cheapest) to find a replacement? Also, on a related note - my spare tire is shot and I have to replace it. Is there any chance that I can use the rim from the spare and put it on my right front, then find a full replacement spare? Or are they different sizes? I bought it used but as far as I know they're the original wheels. Thanks! Tommy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEXIRX330 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Welcome to LOC! You should be able to look at your spare and tell if it is the same rim? I would check eBay for another rim. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanH Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 there are enough of these around you should be able to find one locally, try Craigslist, that's how i found mine. $50 seems regular asking price for a used rim thats not cosmetically perfect. If you want a really nice one $100 + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy I had a cracked rim and used my spare as the replacement....I also found a place here in Houston where I bought a remanufactured rim for 150 dollars...received $50 (was $200) off of that when I turned in my cracked rim.
