VOLK SF CHALLENGE center piece
Hey guys, I'm new here , hope you can help me out with my wheels.
I need a fourth wheel 19x8.5 in gunmetal, at least a center piece, the lip is fixable but I don't have a center for it anyways. I contacted few vendors, some don't wanna bother to order one wheel from japan or they said it will take 3-5 months for a single rim order.
What are my options , do you think I can order just a center piece in gunmetal, bolts and center cap and reuse the lip?
Or in case I find a single wheel thats bent, can I reuse the center(I'm not sure if different offset will change the size of the center piece or all 19" center are the same)
Any help would be appreciated. thank you folks!!!!!

I believe volk doesn't just sell the center piece. Vendors dont want to split up their set thats why they wont sell it to you soon, but someone out there should be able to order you one, bad side is you have to wait

istoreparts don't wanna bother it might take 5+months, memoryfab.com wants $880 and three months wait, mvpmotorsports-$786-3 months wait.The best price was wheels directonline-$700 but I couldn't find any customer reviews on them.
I can use the lip-it's repairable so my question is what if I find a demaged wheel with good center, can I reuse it. Are they all the same?

I'll definitely try them, thanks!!
But do you know if the center pieces are all the same regardless of offset. Is the offset on this particular wheel determined by the positioning the center in the wheel (smaller offset, the center piece is mounted further inside the wheel and it has deeper dish) or the center pieces are different depending on the offset.
I'm asking this in case I find a bent wheel with a good center to swap the center to mine.
Thanks!

I just measured the center pieces from my front and rear wheels, they are both the same size.
I had my other front rim repaired at wheels of america ( fixrim.com ), it had curb rush all over the lip, $100 later it looks brand new. If somebody wants I can post a picture.
Now hopefully I'll find somebody to let go of their 19" bent rim- preferably in gunmetal. Please let me know if you know anyone.
