It is repairable. Needs to be welded, machined & refinished. Only problem is it may be more expensive than a new rim.

Difintly able to be fixed but as showbags said its going to be pricey, and if its not it wont be the job your after. look around though.

Take it in to a rim repair place and get a quote.
Then
Have a look on Ebay for a price for a replacment rim.

Then, Do the cheaper of the 2.
That's what i did.

Good Luck!
