So the wife bent and cracked a wheel, any idea if this can be fixed and if so who and where.
Your insight is appreciated.

fixed? might be cheaper to try finding a used wheel at a junkyard....

keystone still sells refurbished wheels iirc...

if fixing is the only option, keep in mind that wheel will never spin true again...
i believe there are a few places in SE wisconsin that do repair wheels...

:thumbsup for this guy! I dont know if he can repair the crack though, as others have said, you might be better off getting a used rim or a knock off...

x2 on Keystone. We used to use them when I was working in the body shop. Great service and the wheels are pretty cheap. Most alloy wheels are $179 whether it's a knock off or a fixed oem. 414-463-1019
