Rim repair

[Sam Barnes]

I’ve got a 19inch alloy rim that I need welded has a small crack on the back. I’m not sure where to take it, if anyone knows a good place to go around north Brisbane that can repair it would be appreciated

the video below shows one repair method which is more detailed than running a bead along the crack…

Me, I’d want a new rim, maybe I’d keep the welded rim as a full size spare in case of a flat..

I have not used this business since the 1970's so they may not still be there.
