    New to this forum, but I am glad that I found it. I live in Georgia and have had my prerunner for 15 years.

    I bought new tires for my truck, only to find out that one of the wheels were bad. They are 15 inch aftermarket from Southeastern Toyota, manufactured by Einke. Teardrop style.
    like mine have been discontinued. Local body shop sent bent wheel to his vendor, but said they could not straighten the drum of the wheel. I am desperate for one new wheel to match my others. Any Suggestions?

    Welcome to TW! Take it to your local Toyota service drive and they can contact South East Toyota to see if they can contact the manufacturer for a wheel.

    I did and the info I posted came from my local dealership. They said to see a body shop to contact Einkie. I have ran into a dead end
