Mechanic where the car is sitting said he triple checked. It is 5x100.

You could also have the bearing re-drilled but then you are unable to swap sides anymore, but you would have the same offset, because the spacer would change the track width

Well some more bad luck.
Ron's rim is 5x120mm and I would need 5X100mm. He suggesting perhaps a wheel adapter if I can't find another wheel. Let me know please.

Thanks guys,
I have been in  contact with Ron, he actually has one listed on eBay. We are just trying to determine  if it's the  right one. It is fiero based.

One other thing to note.... The replica wheels are near impossible to get these days.

It's  a NAERC  replica one  piece. 18"  accomodates 335/30ZR18. I'm not sure on the rest of the info. The  car was towed to a local shop not in my town. So  it's a half hour drive to find other information.

You will also need to know your bolt pattern as well. Is your replica Fiero based or NAERC Chaise based.Another words are your Rims 5x100 (Fiero) or 5x112 (Lamborghini) or 5x4.75 (5x4.75 or 5x120) This is Corvette. I might have a spare somewhere, I will check when I go to my where-house.
I would contact Ron from Ron's Toy store. He is a good friend and very reliable and trustworthy, He is in Vancouver, CA

Need a replacement rim for Diablo

Hi guys,
Had an unfortunate incident whereas one of my rear rims broke.
The garage I had to bring it to, says it's not repairable. Anyone know where I could find a replacement n  Canada or delivered to Canada?
Thanks  for any help.
