"The rubbers gone!!" Thats what she said.

Are you talking about the plastic/rubber on the bearing? Like in this pic.

Not a problem...Get a bearing puller and yank out the old bearing. Take the new bearing and throw it in the freezer for about 3 hours or so (to help shrink it enough to make pressing it in easier). Get a bearing press and press in the new one.
Or, just take the rim down to the dealer and have them install a new bearing and seal.
