Porsche Crest Too bad

I hear of the 16X9 wheels breaking more than the 8 inch wheels. I'd love to hear the story on how these got broken.

As the saying goes, "Anything is repairable if you throw enough money at it." You will probably be able to find other 8 inch wheels for a lot less than it would take to fix these. You could contact Harvey Weidman or Wheel Enhancements to see what it would cost or if the technology exists to fix them now. You may want to keep them if you have the storage. Someday these wheels will be as rare as hen's teeth and be worth the fix.

have been "repaired" by a specialist welding, I used them 6 months, and then again you are broken, has advised me not to repair it. the FUCHS (DE) costs about 300/400 euro each, honestly I do not trust to travel so. I will use them to make a "work of art" ... maybe it's better.
