Spare on the finalfive

Alright...This is the low down,

I needed New rubber so I went to discount tire. I haven't had problems in the past so I figured everything would be okay. When I left discount I heard a thump noise. At first I figured it was the chunky winter tires on dry pavement. The noise started getting louder as the week went on. About a week after I'm on my way to work at 5 a.m and the noise got really loud as I was coming up on my exit. Parked her and what do ya know...4 out of the 5 lug nuts (driver rear) are just about half way off. So this was almost a month ago and in this time discount has been "trying to obtain a oem replacement rim". They claim they have been sent the wrong rim twice. They offered to just give me a new set of rims free of charge. I told them I want a oem rim. The only problem here is that I have a final500 and it's a "Final Edition (last 500) rim" part #ALY6059. At this point I'm at a standstill and sick of looking at the ugly full size spare they left me with. Any suggestions would be helpful at this point.

No that is incorrect wheel. F500 wheels do not have notches in the spokes.

Gave discount tire a different part number that I found. Within 10 minutes they called me and said they found one. They said it will be in a week from now. Fingers crossed ��
