the tire holds air but i need new tires, wondering if the shop will even put new tires on it with a crack just smaller than the thickness of my fingernail lol

hmmm, you would have to take the tire off and see if the crack makes it back past the bead. It might leak...or it might not lol

I bet i could get away with it but I'd probably be best off getting a new rim rather than have it give way on a launch and total the car, I found a guy asking for 325 shipped for two rears and possibly only a little more with radials included and I'll see where that goes because I still have some life left on my fronts

Look into that Rimpro thing, never used them but I bet it can be fixed

There is a little bit of truth there.

I used kwicksilver wheel repair in E. windsor CT
http://www.ctwheelrepair.com/
did a great job on my bent rim.

yeah man that can be fixed for sure!! is it on the inside only? or both front and rear lips cracked?

black heartbeat 05-23-2011 10:44 PM

inside only but most places I've found are quoting me like i said 160-180 to fix it and I've found ws6 rims online for less than that
