Default Wheel Rim source

Hopefully someone can help me find a true 19 x 9 1/2 RPM R505 hyper silver rim with 38 offset. I tried to have my existing one straightened/trued but it still pulse vibrates/wobbles at 85mph. Any sources?
apparently RPM does not make the R505 anymore...

Yeah, even that link does a minimum of 4. Purchase them anyway, then you have 3 spares. Or sell them to others who need just one for a good price lol

That website has a chat function, multiple locations with PHONE numbers.

Have we come to this where we depend on web ordering systems that default to qty 4 only?

Google sez:
https://www.wheelsandspinners.com/pr...productid=1702
http://www.buyrimsandtires.com/store...ort=20a&page=3

My bet is the wheel is NLA though.... but drop a dime on these guys.

Bet there's people on here that don't know what "drop a dime" even means anymore. Laff......

Phone booth?
Western Union telegram?
56k Modems? (Actually was having a discussion with friends about "modems" this past weekend. I'm looking at them like, "Whuuuuuuuuuuuuutttt?" Someone said "What would you dial up to??" ME: "Why, AOL of course...")

Just out of curiosity..... are you buying a +38 offset wheel for a Z? I only ask because it's an unusual fitment for Z... +38 is the dead on offset for Subies and Evos. But if it works for ya...

Wheels and Spinners may be your only hope. The other site says "min 4" in fine print also.

From what I understand, the 19x9.5 R505 came in 2 offsets 30 and 38. The only stamp I could find on the inner spokes that resembled either of those numbers looked like ET3/8. see picture~

Does this help?
The photo with the metric tape measure is the distance from the edge of the inside rim to the face surface of the inside mounting side of the hub.looks like 171mm.
