You will be struggling as far as i know to get an original equipment wheel.They are pretty rare!
Hopefully someone else will be along to prove me wrong....

As I understand it the rims were originally forged by OZ and they don't make them any more. The tooling to forge a new one would cost a fortune so no-one does it.

The company that are currently refurbishing mine (Prospeed Motorsport) said that if I wanted they could machine a new set from billet on their fancy CNC machine. Once polished they would look identical but this route is not cheap (~£200 per rim and I was asking about all 4). It's potentially an option though.

I haven't seen one come up on Ebay ever.

Theres a chap in London who may be able to help. I got a front rim but I think it was £150 which is steep. His name was Zach I think - done a quick search but nothing rings a bell.
