You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I've got a 2010 Scooby legacy with 18 inch wheels.
It comes with a emergency inflation kit, but this has been useless in the two blowouts I have had with a slow puncture leading to a sidewall split, and a pothole.
So I'd like to get a spare wheel...
Scooby dealers say £600 a pop for one spare
Aftermarket people want to sell me 4 - and the business of getting the right offset seems risky
Online scrapyard search via Breakeryard yielded not a sausage.
Any suggestions?
Ta
eBay?
Have you tried http://www.uklegacy.com/forums/index.php
Quite often you'll find them singly on Ebay...
Nearest salvage yard?
So I'd like to get a spare wheel...
Me too! Hope you have better luck than I did.
Some useful info here, maybe?

ebay not proving helpful for 18 inch wheels...
16" no problem!
Trouble is it is an uncommon variant - the diesel navplus - new the year before - and not enough of them have been scrapped yet!
[b]suburbanreuben [/b]- good shout - will try
It's possibly the common ET53 offset which has been around for years. If so, Most Subaru 18 whhels (except STI) should fit. Jimjam will know.
Just a thought... My local Subaru dealer (proven) is doing a special deal on steel whheels plus winter tyres for £600 odd. Maybe that's a countrywide thing and 18inchers may be not much more.
