I had a slow leak in one of my new tires. When back to the tire place I bought the tires several times and still I had a slow leak. I stopped by Pep Boys one day and asked them to repair my tire. 15 minutes later they showed me that on the back side of the wheel there was a small crack about 3/4-inch long at the edge of wheel.
This is the "3-hole" wheel found on 900SE Saabs from 1996.
I then stopped at two junk yards to see if I could get a "new" used wheel. They didn't have any and I am planning to check some more junk yards, craigslist or other locations for one.
At the same time, I wondered if this could be repaired. I then found via the internet a number of companies that do repairs on Alloy and other wheel.
What is the thinking regarding repair of this type of wheel with this type of crack?
thanks
