Alloy wheel welding/repair

[Cool Mart]

Just had a new tyre fitted and the guy pointed out the reason the old tyre kept going down. I have an inch long hairline crack to one 19" alloy.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a company/person able to weld the crack as the last thing I need at the moment is a £600 replacement alloy from VW !

Thanks

fair point.
Needs to be done properly and stress relieved (can you do this without warping the wheel?) or not done at all.

Try Mint alloys in Silsoe 01525 860069.

Had my E30 BBS alloys refurbed and they did a top job.
