Id say its touch and go with that mate. Ring a wheel refurb place one thats mobile and get them to come have a look for you. Id say if it holds pressure it should be ok to repair but because its such a big section i think a company may be wary of doing it incase it comes off again as usually they just heat up the remaining metal and basically push it to fill the gap.

'kin hell Not sure I'd want to drive on that afterwards anyway tbh!

Anyway, speak to: http://www.rimfurbish.co.uk/ I believe they actually manufacture TD wheels and refurb others at the same time on the same production line.

So if anybody's going to know what can / can't be done with that wheel, then I'd think they're the ones to speak to

I got quoted £60 for this to be repaired



Check out how much a single alloy will cost you before you get it repaired as its always better to have a strong whole wheel
