One of my wheels got damaged with an unknown object in the highway that I was unable to avoid. I'm assuming it was a metal because the wheel is not repairable as one wheel person said. Do you have any ideas how I can deal with this?

One suggestion from the wheel expert was to check on eBay because dealer may charge a lot for one wheel and he was unable to get one from his vendors. I looked on eBay and I found like 3 which 2 of them are refurbished and 1 used with some scratches.

More information: Lexus NX200t 2015, Wheel:5 Twin Spoke Stock Alloy Rim Silver 18" , This is a lease vehicle that I'm planning to purchase after the lease ends.

Any suggestions/comments/ideas??? will be appreciated. Thank you!

Wow that is a really bad hit, sorry to see that. First I would contact the local city to see what are their rules with them responsible for clearing road debris. Also depending on your insurance that should be easily covered if you want to claim it.

Like someone suggested you likely have to look around for a used wheel, pretty sure a new one at Lexus will run you some serious coin unfortunately.
