cracked rim

All this time I thought that I had a bad tire. My tires always deflated over night.

Took the rim off, put air in the tires, and start spraying the tire with water. I started hearing the water bubbling up where the leak was. Looked at the tire, and noticed it wasn't the tire, it was actually the rim. So I check the other rim also, and noticed that it was on both of them.

Is this fixable? What is the best and cheapest place to get this fixed?

Help is much appreciated.

yeah it's fixable, but it's prolly just cheaper to get a used set of rims?

Precision Rim repair can fix it. Call Ric and he will give you an idea of cost and you can decide if it is worth it.

cracked rim

The crack is only about 1-1.5" long. I'll call today. I hope I can fix these rims. I don't think i've seen anyone with my rims before.
