Cracked wheel

[carm]

I have a cast aluminum wheel with a crack about 3" long running from the bead toward the hub. Is it possible/advisible to have it welded? No damage to the wheel other than the crack.

i would ask an acredited shop that deals with repairing aluminium wheels. I have a cracked weld wheel that i'm gonna have repaired, but i'm gonna wrap the wheels with boggers and use them for offroading full time.

there are shops that specialize with repairing aluminum rims. i would say as long as you are using a reputable place, there should be no problems at all.
