Curb ate my rim...

So a little rain and a whole lotta curb took out my front passenger rim last night on our 89 IROC.
They are 16" and it seems 89 and 90 had the same style, is that correct?
I've posted on the parts wanted board and e-mailed Hawks and everybody on the Parts for sale boards selling rims. What other vendors/suppliers might have 89 IROC rims?
Thanks for the help.

There is a company in San Jose, CA called Nu-wheelz (Or something like that) that does wheel repair and also sells these wheels for something like 75.oo or so. Do a web search for wheel repair/refinishing. Are these the "Two-line" Wheels? (Might have some laying around...)
