You can try a junkyard.

You can also just buy a new one from one of the parts retailers, such as bernardiparts.com. But our rims are really expensive.

There are also some places that sell replica OEM wheels for cheap.

Maybe you can find a pair of rears & have the option to convert to non-stag (sometimes you'll see these kinds of posts FS). This would leave your one off wheel as a dedicated full spare, ready for action!

Meet him at a tire shop and have them check it to be sure it's straight.
