NOODLE Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 got a set of Gewalt splits on my car and i went to get what i thought was a puncture sorted and found that the passenger rear wheel has a crack in it. the only question is if i get the wheel welded will it be prone to cracking again after? im thinking of getting a different set as soon as i can but ive gotta do a long distance drive soon and want to make sure the wheels will hold up after being welded? cheers in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin-mkiv Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Should be ok, as long as it's done properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Make sure its done with the right type of welding. IIRC i got my Volks tig welded? *i think* They have been fine for the last year and a bit, with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
