Need New Rim
I hit a curb because I was going around a curve and hit some ice and totally just bashed right into that thing at like 13-17MPH the rim is busted there is a good 3-4" piece missing. I can't seem to find these rims online anywhere. The tire is still holding air but we are to set off on a road trip Friday and I'm not going to trust that for over 1k miles.

Have tou checked the back of the wheel for manfacturer info.? Those remind me of the optional wheels Canadian dealers were offering back in '08 when I bought my sedan.

I do not recommend fixing. For safety, buy a new or a used healthy one.

I could probably find you one, get me the manufacturer of the wheel (probably says on the centercap or on the back of the rim) and the size.

Better check close for suspension and tie rod damage also. Might be best to check with a local tire dealer and just get you a steel wheel in the mean time. Check with Discount Tire, they have factory take-offs (if thats a factory wheel), they have really good prices on them. I gave like $250 for a set of factory alloys for my '01 Tundra.

I had Toyota look at it when they put the spare on for me, they said there was no other damage besides the wheel. I can't get the manufacture info since they kept the wheel and tire at the dealer. But I did finally find this http://goo.gl/evAjs which is the same wheel. I'm trying to find a junk yard around that might have some, but I haven't seen any Yaris' with these same wheels, and the service guy at Toyota said that they weren't a very common option. But I guess the people that owned it before upgraded a few things on it, it's got the TRD Clutch and shortshift and the TRD exhaust on it too.

It's an aftermarket wheel, so the chances may be slim. Might be better to hunt for a decently priced dealer, both locally and online IMO.

Since it's a Toyota/TRD wheel, try contacting TRDSparks. They're a dealer in SC and usually have very good pricing.
