Hairline cracks

1986pacecar · 05-11-2011, 10:20 AM

Can a hairline crack in a wheel be repaired so that it is 100% safe? I've been looking at a set of wheels for sale and one has a hairline crack that the seller had repaired. Should I steer clear or are they in fact fixable? Thanks.

I have seen wheel repair shops fix hairline cracks without a problem. You would be surprised at what can be fixed by these shops, its amazing.
