Default 2009 Mazda 3 Touring "RIMS" Question

Hey guys hope you all had a nice extended holiday weekend.

I got a question for anyone who is able to assist?

I recently scuffed my drivers side front wheel's rim and its bothering me and i want to replace it.

I was wondering if anyone knows where i can purchase a replacement rim for the car either online or off?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
Lou!s

LPG -
First things that come to mind are your local salvage yards and Craigs list. You can try eBay but I think shipping would be challenge cost-wise. Swap meets are another good source for these kinds of things if you can find one locally. The last resort would be the dealer.

There is a set on Ebay for $475 + $85 for Shipping

But I have seen Single wheels on there before but cannot remember what the price was.
