Hi,

My wife had a small collision with a curb in the snow last week and took a big lump out of the alloy between two of the spokes, it has exposed the tyre so I have swapped it for the steel rim spare, now I need a new alloy to replace the broken one and the dealer wants £165 inc VAT for one and ebay seem to be selling them in 3's and 4's and are collection only (all over 100 miles away) I could courier them to myself but then I might aswell but a new one.

So I ask does anyone have a spare 5 spoke (seem to be the stardard alloy as they are on most Megane's) Picture below if it works. I dont mind (infact I prefer it not to have a tyre but so be it if it does) any suggestions on what I can do to save forking out £165 for one alloy.

Hello, how about your local Breakers Yard, if they don`t have one in stock, leave your details for when they get one in, they are a reasonably popular wheel after all !! Regards Damian. :-)

Tried that but with me currently running on the spare the tracking is way out and I also dont have a spare, lol.
