Managed to do this at Snetterton in the weekend. Does it look repairable?



Thanks

I'm not sure if this makes any difference or not, but the tyre still held pressure. I drove it back from snett and was fine

What other damage did it do to other steering/supension components ?


Paul
No other damage. The impact was extremely slight. The rim must have hit a bolt that was sticking out of the armco.

I've just dropped the wheel off with an engineering company who specialise in wheels and they say it is very repairable and will be just a strong as it was before. Will post pics of it when its done smile
