try the local salvage yard.....
I'm sure this is the same as many small car wheels..you do need hoever to
use wheels designed for drum brakes, disk brake wheels are
different.......years ago I had an older Komet trailer, I found Plymouth
Horizon wheels fit perfectly....and most of these cars came with space saver
spare tires.....the type that was fully inflated, not the ones with the air
can to fill as needed....the neat thing was that these wheels are the same
on the spare tires as those on the ground, just the tire was
different........everyone hated these space saver spares so junk yards had
dozens of them, usually brand new they couldn't sell to anyone....and the
wheels were fairly attractive, slotted type wheels...I got brand new, no
rust silver painted wheels complete with the tire for about $10.00
each....had I just wanted to by a used, probably bent wheel they would have
charged $25 each.....and the Horizon was a typical 70-80's cheapo car with
rear drum brakes....
try it.....worked perfectly for me

I have an older Cobra trailer (1980ish - aluminum) and need to find

another
tire rim (I had an axle mishap and lost one of my tire/rims). The rim is

a
4 x 100 metric (four lug holes and 100 mm between each lug) and supports a
13 inch tire. Does anyone have a rim for sale or can suggest a source in
the US hopefully close to Atlanta, Georgia to get one?

Thanks for your help.
