I hit a curb and broke a wheel, damn AWD was supposed to hold? So now I have no spare. So I'm trying to find a 17" R/T wheel or a wheel and tire of any size so I don't get stranded anywhere. Anything from a cheap R/T wheel to a 15" doughnut will work. Just don't want to pay for shipping so local is best. Thanks.

Edit: Also note I should have put this in the wanted section but I'm not a member. I'll join one of these days but as of right now I'll be struggling to pay for the wheel. Here we're down a pay check and up a dependent. TIA

You want the same outside diameter for the spare as what you're running or you can do real drastic damage to the internals on the diff involved. Spider gears and lsd won't be happy.

hit up a local salvage yard, probably be your best bet.

P R,

We'll let you slide this once on the non-member thing since it's a wanted item and not a selling item. Membership is CHEAP and so are excuses.

In terms of cheap? getting an RT wheel is easiest on eBay. That's your best bet IMHO. If that doesn't work, try this parts yard, http://www.lkq.com/

Good to know, I have seen them on eBay for 100 + 25 shipping. I'd rather just find one local. I still have 4 matching wheels. I'll just take the broken one to the recycling place with the beer cans.

If it's all aluminum? just have it fixed.

Call your local bodyshop and ask them who to contact in your area. Once fixed, you will never know the difference.

missing a good size chunk, I guess it could be repaired. I'll call around. Everyone is so proud of these R/T wheels.
