Enkei YS5 wheel repair, is it practical and safe?
 
I bought some 15" Enkei YS5 but one needs repair. Is it safe and practical? Or a new one for $140 is better?
Not sure how much the repair would be.

it will cost more to fix than buying a brand new from Tire Rack or eBay.

I decided to buy a new one instead. Wheel shop can't fix them, too much metal is gone they said.

yah, i would be worried about the bead of the tire. good call getting a new one to replace.

Yea to do that right you'd be $150 ish.. I'd only do it if the wheels were unobtanium..

New wheel is about $120 plus tax so decided to buy new one. Anyway I got a good deal on these wheels (3pcs) plus almost new tires for $380. The wheels are in excellent condition no curb rash.

but good thing you got the replacement. any picts coming soon?
