I ordered a set of the 17" bullit rims and tires for my V6 over a month ago and UPS lost one of the wheels. So I only had 3 delivered to me just sitting in my garage. I am looking to buy just ONE rim and tire but I can't find anyone to sell one to me. Looked all over ebay everyday and they don't sell just one. That guy Mike Cascotech or whatever said he would sell me one for $200 shipped but he hasn't returned my emails for about two weeks now. Anyone know where I can buy one for a decent price? Thanks

UPS isn't responsible for losing the wheel? You might wanna check with UPS and the place you ordered them from. I'm sure one of them owe you that wheel.

Check Your Local Dealers for Mustangs with Custom Rims. It's a Sure Bet that they Have some take off's Floating around. Check with the Sales Manager First and Then The Parts Manager. We just Started Putting CusTom Rims on Our Stangs so we can not Part with any Take Offs till the Cars Sell or I would Offer to sell you one. $150.00 to $200.00 is a Fair Price for One.

A place in long beach, Ca. had wheels listed on ebay used id 3910pplus
they had some of those wheels and were selling them in singles a couple weeks ago. you might want to check with them. Also ups should have to compensate you for the lost wheel. I almost bid on the wheels from the guy in Ca. to have a spare. Good luck.

UPS is responsible for your lost wheel. You need to contact the shipper and tell them you only recieved 3 wheels and you paid for 4. UPS also needs to tell you what happened to the wheel. It was either misdelivered or its sitting in there claim office because of damage.

Yea I have been going through all of those processes of trying to find the wheel for a month. The shipper didn't put insurance on the wheels so UPS would only refund the shipping charges of $100. And the guy who sold them to me said he would throw in an extra $50. So $150 pretty much covers the costs. Paypal wouldn't cover it because it wasn't though ebay. And I've called the UPS store, placed a traced, and they can't find the wheel. So I'm taking my medicine on this one and just trying to find a wheel. I've been worrying about this for almost 2 months now. But thanks I'll try and find a wheel at the places you guys said.

If anyone else has any other ideas also about where to get a wheel, keep them coming. thanks

Try eBay again. Here's a single 17" bullitt for $79.00/BIN $84.00:

I did a search on '2005 mustang wheel' to get this (ignore quotes!)

Good luck!

I'm in Southern California. I live in Victorville and I jsut bought a set for $475 so I will put those on my car and sell the other 3 I have in my garage one at a time. Hopefully I can get about 150 for each wheel and tire to get my money back. If anyone wants to buy a 17" bullit rim and tire for around $150 let me know.
