Looking for New Wheels

Well, I had badmunky's 18x7.5 ALT Sonix on my car, but one met its fate on a curb and the repair shop told me it wouldn't be safe to repair it.

I've called ALT and Kyowa (the Kyowa 210s are almost the exact same wheel), neither can help me out. Anybody know where I could find one replacement?

If not, do any of you know of a cheap, lightweight, 5-spoke set of wheels? My ALTs were pretty light. How much do the 18x8 TSW Nogaros weigh?

I really can't stand the stock SS/SC wheels and would love to sell them, but I can't until I find myself a new set of wheels that I like.

those look like the same wheels i had on my cavalier, except mine where made by exel and the name of the wheel was speed. i dont know if this will help but i figured that it might be another brand that you can look at.

Thanks for the offer, but I only need wheels and might get a set of Hotswaps since they're running pretty cheap.

Anybody know how much the Hotswaps weigh a piece?

Oh, and I've called both Kyowa and ALT and visited many, many different sites and nobody has an extra wheel..

Does anybody know the weight on a TSW Nogaro 18x8 wheel? The Hotswaps weigh way too much.
