welding crack on alloy wheel (help) (ch48)

[gavrob1981]

I bought some new wheels today but noticed two very small cracks in the rim on one wheel on the back edge. one at the top one at the bottom (180 degrees)


Need to get it welded, was wondering does any one know any where in the Wirral near Liverpool. and any idea how much it would cost?


Cheers Gav

Does any one have an alloy welder local i will give them a few quid for 10 mins work .........

you got some better images??

10mins work! behave, do you know what's involved in TIG welding Ali?

your going to have to grind back to where the crack propagates from aswell.........its not going to be a cheap or quick repair if you have to repair the rim.

I would only trust Pristine wheels in milton keynes to weld repair wheels
