My 18" rim's got a single crack on the inside and although it's not leaking air id like to get this sorted out asap. I'm based in Chester but work in Liverpool so does anyone have any recommendation, and how much should j be paying for this? The alloy has tyre innit so it will need to be taken off and put back/rebalanced too. Thanks in advance!

A cracked alloy.....

Id seriously look to replace than to weld it. Its the only part of the car thats on the road. had a wheel that cracked the repair was done and it was ok but the wheel cracked again, that was welded and it cracked again. that was me over the price that a decent uncracked 2nd hand wheel would have cost me
