Actually, I understand that it may be hard to get rid of a single front rim and I was offering a way to do that if he wanted to. Leave it to you to make something bad out of it.
Not many people want to separate a set or pair of rims out... That is all I was saying.
And quit stalking me. You only seem to post after I do here and on RL. I am married - YOU CAN'T HAVE ME!

Hey, Blue Monster I remember seeing a post a while back where a guy took pictures of the pothole and rim and sent a request to his state and they paid for the damage...
Not sure if it will work for you, but might be worth a shot...

Lots of stuff on ebay and 6speed, found a set of OEM hollows for less than $895. I knew this was going to lead to more choices than answers.
No No, I've got the wax and the cat of 9 tails! You *****es are mine!

Thank you all for your thoughts.....
The wheel with the crack is the front right wheel.
I was focusing on if I hit a curb, but after Ard's comments, I began thinking about, "did I hit any big potholes recently?", then I went, oh sh*t, yes, I did.
I hit a huge new pothole dead on at a healthy speed. I didn't see it because the car in front of me was blocking the view and swerved to miss it only at the last second. I remember thinking, oh boy, probably lost a tire, but the car has been driving totally fine since. The right front tire is in great shape and is holding air fine. I hate to replace it given it has so little wear.
I think I am going to look here and on ebay for a used OEM wheel front wheel (are left and right interchangeable?) and order the new tires from tirerack and have it all done together. If anyone is a seller of a used OEM front, pls PM me.
Thanks again.
