HELP: Need best place to find a stock rim for Corolla

My Mom's car's front passenger rim is bent.

1999 Toyota Corolla...base model so it is the one that has a wheel cover.

Anyone know the best place? I've been gone from HI for 2 years but assume the yards in Mapunapuna are still there. If not, anyone from Servco that can tell me how much?

Blake

P.S. I have to get this done like in the next few days.

I know Shaggy works at Servco Subaru which is right next to Servco Toyota so maybe he can help you out? or maybe its time for your mom to get some aftermarket rims

^^^LOL...so she can be balla.

Yeah she said it was from a pothole probably but she never drives fast enough to notice the steering wheel shake...just have to take care of this so she can drive safely.

i thought corollas are 5x100 like subies? That's why they can run our stockers, i've seen some on the road with stock wrx wheels in the past on 03 and newer corollas.

Blake's mom has a 1999 Corolla btw and my friend said his 1985 4-door sedan (not a GT-S) uses 4x100, but maybe the bolt pattern changed over the years, but I'm not sure of that

Found a very useful pdf file that lists bolt patterns and OEM offsets for every car up to 2004:

Yeah 4 x 100 however the stupid wheel covers are 5 lugs...lol...I think they're 14 inchers on there right now.

Going to hit up Mapunapuna and Sand Island tomorrow...shouldn't be hard to find I suppose.

How does that work out? 4x100 but having wheel covers that are 5 lugs? That just seems totally weird to me

^^^Even Toyota can be rice I guess.

So I got a new rim at Auto Recyling Inc. off of Sand Island Access Road (after Matson...go towards the park...take first right).

$32.

Also spotted a set of 2.5RS 6 spoke 16s...I frickin would've bought them but don't need 3 sets of rims!
