Other than pick n pull, what's the best place to purchase stock rims? I don't have a full size spare on my KK, so I was looking for a matching stock rim. Google showed me a few options for like 150 a wheel, that seems a little high. Anyone have any tips on a good website or company? The '02 steel wheels are only like 58. I could go with one of those, but would prefer to have it match so I could do a 5 tire rotation down the road. Any tips are much appreciated.

There will be nothing wrong with a matching OEM rim from a junkyard, especially if you can see it yourself before you buy. I got mine that way for $75 including a TPMS and a center cap.

http://www.car-part.com is a good search tool for junkyards in your area, although not all junkyards are in their database.

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I searched and called around and the nearest junk yard with anything is in southern California like 8 hours away. They wanted 105 anyway. Plus shipping and tax, so 149 after it was all said and done. I found a place online called automotix, they charged me 130 with no tax or shipping. Found one for 75, but it was on ebay and had been curbed and looked bent. Wish I coulda got a deal like you did.

CARID.COM sells some refurbished or replica wheels for most makes and models. You can also buy straight from Mopar... but it is mopar... so be prepared to dish out some $$$ lol

I have several extra wheels but not sure that any r in great condition but all are round and serviceable. I would sell very reasonably. There are also several on eBay. Ones I have are the stock 16 inch aluminum on 05 and 06 CRD. Would be happy to have someone use them. They are in a container think i have more than 5. I don't look at site as often as i used to but feel free to contact me if interested.
