    I drove into a really really deep pot-hole tonight and my rim is bent and is not usable.

    I dont' wanna spend 460.00 at the Honda Dealer.

    Are there any places in Houston anyone knows where I can find 1 rim?

    1997 Honda Prelude - non SH (front right wheel)

    I know they a few websites that sell OEM wheels for like 220.00, but I need the wheel asap.

    SO if any of you know of a place or someone with what I need....please please let me know!

    UTW,

    Call Debbie w/ Tire & Wheel Connection (281-890-5920). She has one of those wheels in stock for $175 (just talked to her). Let her know which side it is (i wasnt sure when she asked me).

    They are located in NW Houston (1960/290 area).

    Maybe you can email this guy(ebay auction) and ask him to end the bidding early and send it out to you overnight...wait...that might go over the $175 local price you've already got...have you called any local junkyards?
