It can be fixed.......BUT. Welding an area like that creates a brittle area just outside the weld in the "heat affected zone." Chances are it will crack just outside the weld. Looks like some fatigue failure, chances are that whole radius is going through the same thing. Sometimes the money you saved in a repair just isn't worth it. I would seriously think about an upgrade in your wheel program.

anything can be fixed but is it worth the price
