I think I'd have a hard time finding a tire shop on a random interstate exit that stocks 315/35/20 non-RFT Bridgestone Duelers, has a hunter balancing machine, etc. Especially when I really need it. Much easier and cheaper and time saving to just slam on another ready wheel and go.
got it - good plan!

I swear I am having the hardest time sorting this out.

I returned the replica wheel to the seller.
The seller refunded the payment and my shipping costs through paypal.
I purchased the OEM wheel from the seller under a new transaction.
The seller sends the new wheel.
The IDIOT shipping and receiving employee at my company sees it delivered, and thinks that this is the replica that needs to be returned.
So the IDIOT employee returns the OEM wheel.
I call UPS to STOP the return, of course they deliver it anyhow.
I contact gregbolby, he verifies that he has received the returned wheel.
So now I will pay for him to ship it back, and hopefully the third time is the charm.

The OEM wheel came in today (again!) I told the shipping guy at work to KYFHO my wheel, haha. This one IS oem and the condition is as described by the seller. THANK YOU gregbolby!

Finally have a full size spare for my 315 square setup!
