So I've only had my "Z" for a few months, and the other day somebody pulled out in front of me blocking both lanes and causing me to run off the road busting up my front bumper and ruined my front passenger wheel. They are VSR Z5R's...and I have had a hell of a time trying to find anyone who carries them. They were on the car when I bought it, and I love the way they look. Does anyone have any clue where I could find just 1 of these wheels? I got the guys insurance information and they are paying for everything...but they can't order this wheel from the shop and they're just going to cut me a check for the estimated amount 1 wheel is worth. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

 

I Googled "VSR Wheels" and came up with this:

http://vsrwheels.com/contact.html

 

oh sorry, I forgot to mention that I already contacted www.vsrwheels.com and spoke with their sales representative. He told me they no longer have that wheel in stock because "It's a slow season for selling wheels".
I also e-mailed the sales dept of http://www.blacklinems.com/vsr.html
and have yet to receive a reply. that was a few days ago.

 

hmm buy a new set? lol doesnt sound like you have many options unless you find someone selling a used PAIR...unlikely

 

how about some g35 19" oem rays? no tires for $750 shipped, let me know that are made by rays engineering, they are forged and lightweight

 

This might be a dumb suggestion, but since you didn't mention it in your post, have you tried looking for a shop that refinishes wheels? or are they too trashed for it... sorry to hear about that, it really sucks when other people are too busy/lazy to concentrate on driving and you end up paying for their inability to drive, best of luck to you.

 

Maybe you could complain to the insurance company and they'll cut a check for more money since the wheel can't be replaced.

 

^ This. Tell them they are discontinued and you can't find a used replacement so need a full matching set of comparable value + the cost of tire mounting.

 

Put a little black touch-up paint on the wheel and call it a day.

This is a good option
