I was at SP today and I told Jimmy that my rear right tire had a slow leak. After a little bit of investigating, he found that my rim was cracked on the inside lip. :bang

How much is it to repair a (very minor) cracked rim?
Will they have to repaint my entire rim, even though it's on the inside lip?
Any shop suggestions?

And... is there anyone with a spare set of 18" rims willing to lend to me while the rim gets fixed? I'll pay you in non-sexual favours. :D

Thanks!

Some cracks are fixable.

Contact Union Rim Repair for a quote. (Carcones is expensive)

Use your winters in the meantime.

Check the cost of buying 1 Rim, maybe you can find one used..

His rims are rare and discontinued :(
That's a bummer, man... Good luck.
