Help me get to Chicago for Christmas

I need 1 wheel. Thats it, i blew mine out when my tires decided to not grip anymore.

Its an LS. Standard 15" steelie.

Just the wheel would be fine, wheel plus tire is fine too.

If you need to get rid of a whole set, let me know I'll do that too.

I just dont want to miss the 4th family christmas bash in a row because of somthing stupid like this.

Let me know.

I'm in southeast michigan. And I need it by today or tomarrow morning.

as a last ditched effort i called my contacts and was able to put together a factory gm wheel, new tire, and installation for about 80 bucks.

it pays to know people at dealerships.



thanks for the help/support guys.

ill be on the way to chi town at 7am. w00t.
