Cracked wheel

Does look like it could be welded? Was hoping it was just a puncture [emoji23]

Someone will be able to weld that.

Personally don't trust any wheels that have been welded/cracked as it'll only cause stress cracks elsewhere. Could be tip of iceberg.

Loads of folk do carry on tho, I'm just paranoid. Usually £50 quid or so for a decent weld repair.
 
I got a cracked wheel repaired the other week by a place in Burntwood staffs, cost £45 and was a perfect job. I take on board about the risks but from what I’ve found out, original wheels are better to deal with for cracks and straightening as they are made stronger.
Depends where you are I guess but worth speaking to a few places.
 
I paid £50 to get one welded recently that was on the edge like that.

Are these OEM or aftermarket ones? Mine was a team dynamic and they didn't have any issue with it
