2007 Honda Fit Sport has a bent Wheel with a crack

Hi, there
Mine is a 2007 honda fit sport with storm silver color. I have a question about my bent Stock Wheel. It's a long story. I just make it short. I hit a huge pot hole ----my wheel is bent---- fixed it ----bent again and has a crack on it( just realize it recently) . I simply want to replace it ( don't want to fix it again since it has a crack on). There are two choices : one is to buy a new one from dealer which will cost $300 bucks for one wheel (rim); another is to buy a used one on ebay or craiglist or junk yard. $300 bucks for a single stock wheel is out of question. So I search online and found one. But it is from different manufacturer than mine ( mine is from Kosei; the one I just found out is from Enkei). I asked dealer about these two different manufacturers. I was told the wheel (rim) made by Enkei is for 2008 and there is a TPMS (tire pressure sensor --I assume) with the wheel. But my online search is telling me this: 2007 honda fit wheel , 15x6, Enkei mfg

My question is this: Is the Enkei wheel for 2008 or 2007? If it is for 2008, can I use it on my 2007 fit sport (no sensor). (Of course with the same size, offset, bolt pattern) Will there be a problem for me to use Enkei wheel instead of Kosei one? Do I need to do something special on this Enkei wheel? Do I need that sensor? Is it a bigger hole on Enkei for valve stem than 2007 ? Or I have to get that sensor for sealing the tire. So what do you suggest? Hopefully I made my questions clearly for you guys. Thanks a lot in advance!

BTW, Has anyone had one extra wheel (rim) for sale in cheap price?

p.s. Go Pens!

For 300 bucks, I'd either call your local dealerships (or ask around if anyone knows someone who works/knows someone at a local dealership) and ask for a set of "takeoffs" You can usually score a set of stock wheels/tires for about 400.
