Just had a blow out on the motorway. Luckily was doing 60 - 70 at the time. However, Green Flag guy says the wheel is probably fucked now.
Best place to pick up an original second hand wheel online?

Why are you picking up a second hand wheel for a works van?

Why pay £30 for a wheel and then another £50 for a tyre if you can get a wheel and tyre for £30 / £40.
If i tell the nice admin lady where to get the wheel from she can arrange it

Van is not off the road, currently has the spare wheel on. Plus, we have a spare van i can use if needs be.
It will take less time now for me to buy a wheel off eBay than taking the van to a local garage and wait around. Plus they will have to order a wheel..
Wheel will arrive and i'll stick it in the little rack / give the other to my mate to dispose of. Sorted 
Infact, admin will sort this after i send a link / tell the manager i've fucked the wheel
