[hotvwnut]

i have a set of 15x7 , 1 wheel has a crack in petal, has anyone had one repaired, or cheaper to replace 1 to complete set--thank you, louie

[RWebb]

replace it

and, is that a real Fuchs?

people say chroming damages the wheels, but that seems unusual...

real 91136102011--polished, not chrome

That wheel is now an ornament (or hose reel). Its totally unsafe for road use and should not be welded and put back in use.

That level of damage is pretty rare. Do you know the history of the wheel? I wonder if it got some big impact...

ive had wheels since pre- 1990 , had polished--later put tires, for vw bug--haha car is still not done---such is life , no history on wheels, bought from a guy making a slant nose with ruf wheels---thanks for the info from the ones in the know---i figured it would hold up a vw bug convertible well----have 16" for it now , i guess i will be posting three wheels with a free hose reel with antique tires--- o well

I'm interested in it as a hose reel - Email me.
