I got an extra tire (just the rubber). and I was wonderin if I could get some rims so that it can be made into a full size spare.

I know that most places only sell them expensive chrome nice lookin junks, but I just need one that's not bent up...somethin cheap as possible...

anyone know where I can find some for cheap???
