Leaking Wagon Wheels
One of my club members has a set of chrome wagon wheels he is willing to give me. He says they are cracked. The cracks are apparently inside and cause the tires to lose pressure. He says it's a common problem with the wagon wheels. I was unaware of this problem, but know if it is common, someone on this forum knows how to fix it. Any advise?

I looked into getting a wheel fixed when I found out that one of my Z06 wheels were bent.
I forget the places I checked, but it was cheaper to buy a new wheel.
I think it was around $100 to $150 to get one fixed locally, and some place over the net offered $75 + shipping.
like I said, cheaper to buy a new wheel
