These guys sell Rota's not sure if they would sell a wheel by itself but might be worth asking?

Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but I found this American shop on eBay selling new Rota Gravels in Hyperblack individually as I'm in the same boat as you - needing to replace one damaged rim as repair is more expensive than buying a new rim outright.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/110931583811?it ... 23&vxp=mtr

The price for the one wheel is good, but the shipping to Australia (Sydney) is USD$90. Converts roughly to AUD$290 to your door at today's exchange rate.

Alternatively, you can try and organise a group-buy of four people to buy a four-wheel package. I'm sure there are others who need a fifth wheel or a replacement wheel, then we can get the price down to $250 or so each.

Shipping is easy - wrap them in bubble wrap, put sheets of cardboard on the front and back faces, bubble wrap that again and secure with packaging tape and then send via e-Go. Charges would be low for just one rim - I've sent full rims and tyres like that to Perth via e-Go before and they didn't get a scratch.

Are the rims you have Hyperblack (shiny medium-grey look) or Gunmetal (browny darker-grey look)? Reference image - Gunmetal is on the left, Hyperblack is in the middle.

I can get a set of 4 in the 18x8.5+44 any colour you want for $650 a set of 4 so it would only be $162.50 a wheel brand new if you had a group buy
