Thanks for the suggestion. Wasn't really looking to spend 200-300 for a refinished wheel, or close to that amount for something in very good shape. Hoping to find a neglected wheel that holds air to match the other three wheels still on the car. To give an idea of what they look like / what I'm looking for:
(Notice the cracked and flaking paint on the spokes, and corroded lips with peeling clear coat, and multiple curb damage)

I have small amounts of the curb/cleacoat issues you have. A set of Konig feathers may be more econicomical. Mine are ok but long term I want them repaired since it's only the lips w/ issues. These cost so much figures I get the right car w/ options/condition/miles and the only thing for an 06 is the wheels. I have seen a cheap set of the 8 spokes I might get in the mean time fixing mine.

True. I actually have a set of Enkei's with new tires inbound. My plan was to keep the '05 for another year, then trade it in for a '17. I had no intention of getting new wheels since the tires and R90's were still good for the duration. A couple of weeks ago, I nailed a big pothole on the highway that I didn't see coming and bent the rim. Tried to get the bend fixed so that it would hold air, but was told the there was an unrepairable crack that couldn't be welded for safety reasons. The only choice that made sense at that point was a new reasonably priced set of wheels and tires. Makes no sense, however, to trade the car in with the new set because the dealer will not give me any more $$ for them. I figure then that the best thing would be to sell the new set here to recoup part of the cost. I would then need to find a matching R90 to put the old tire back on so I can trade it in next year. That's the plan.
