Default 00' Platinum GS Rim Needed.

I hit a pot hole last night and bent my front passenger side rim. So I need a new rim to replace it. If anyone has one to sell or know of where I can get one please let me know. I don't want to get it from the dealership as it will cost a whole lot more than I have to spend. If anyone can help plese let me know.

I've got a non platinum 17" rim if you want to buy it. You could use your spare to replace the damaged one and put mine in the spare spot.

James,

If you need to borrow a 17" or 16" stock GS wheel with tire for a while (even to carry as a spare) let me know. I've got both sitting in my basement.

I'm moving this thread to the wheels classifieds as a WTB.

Default Try replica if you can't find OEM

Finding that OEM (a single rim) might be tough, but you might find it if you are willing to wait. You should have an OEM spare that you can use in place of the damaged wheel and then buy an OER Lexus replica wheel as your spare. You might want to try a replica. Unless you use these wheels for some severe conditions (ie on the track), then the replica wheel should work fine. The reason I say that is b/c people often say the replica is "lower quality", but nobody ever shows evidence of it. I use a set of replica's as my second set of rims on my GS and they are just as nice as the OEM they copy. This company's replicas look just like the OEM. This place: www.aaarims.com has the wheel you are looking for for $208. Might be worth a try if you can' t find the OEM replacement.
