Wasn't sure exactly to post this but....
i bought a set of 17 inch team Dynamic alloys to weigh in today that were 'damaged', got there and had a look, only 1 is really damaged, it has a crack near the rear of the alloy, the rest are pretty good, as their uber-lightweight, they aren't worth much as scrap so was wondering if anyone had fixed a cracked alloy before? As I'd probably keep them if I could get it repaired...thanks in advance! :thumb:

You can defo get a cracked alloy wheel welded, but it may crack again if you hit a big pothole etc. I'd say go for it anyhow!

I know but their seriously light, i might weight just the cracked 1 in, repair the other, and wait a while to see if any other singles 1's come along on ebay or here/migweb/mk3oc...
