Default OEM Rim Replacement

My brother in law hit what must have been a huge pot hole. His rim is now bent and he was quoted $250 to repair the rim. Was wondering how much it was to get an OEM replacement. He has a 2006 or 2007 IS250 RWD.

Found a place online that sells them for $150 but that place looks suspect. I checked out Sewell and they are over 500 bucks! Makes the $150 price seem really shady.

Any suggestions on where to find a good price on OEM rims?

Thanks.

You can get the whole set of OEM wheels on classified for $200-300. Keep checking it. The online one for $150 per wheel should be good option as well.

I just sold a whole set of OEM wheels off from my IS350 for $200.

I guess i missed the fine print on the website that had them for $150. They are replicas. Scouring the marketplace now.

Pretty sure they are 18's. Having him check the size in the morning (it's pouring here in NY).
