Looking for a used 17 inch wheel

Anyone in the Newport/SE Mass area have a used 17 inch wheel lying around? Need a full sized spare for my new Forester. Size 17X7J which would fit tire size P225/55R17

Tried area junk yards - nada.

Thanks in advance

You can't just use any 17" rim, it needs to have the proper bolt pattern and offset.

Check on a few of the Subaru enthusiast web sites:

Thanks GF. Lots of good info that I didn't consider. Looks like there is no "cheaper" way out.
