Cracked alloy wheels

[marc69]

My mate's Jag S type has a slow tyre leak. We looked at it today and it has a tiny hairline crack on the inside rim.

Are these repairable, or should he just look for a good second hand alloy.

You can get them alloy welded. Had a set done worked fine.

Guy at my work welded his worked fine also.

Yeah tiny cracks are fine to weld

I'll have a word with one of the welders at work on Monday if you like see if someone will do it for you.

We weld alloys with tig at my work. Its a shame that you are too far away though. I am sure Baz will sort you out. :)

Aye we do alloy tig here too :)

A wee homer for somebody ;)

That would be great Barry, my mate would appreciate it.

Guy at my work will do it will just take a few mins. Either take the wheel to my work during the day as I'm on nightshift or I'll collect it from you.
