Recently bought some cheap tires, had them for about two weeks. Then the front passenger side tire decides to die on me..
When changing to spare tire I notice that the inner barrel has a crack in it... f***ng sh*t minerva tires.

Anyways lesson learned, if u buy crap, u get crapped on.

Is it possible to weld this?

If they can't be welded, does anyone have an inner barrel laying around:helpfor Work Rezax II 9,5"...

That crack should be easily fixable. Call around to a few wheel restoration shops. And don't be so quick to blame the tires because the OEM BMW wheels are not that strong. I've got a set of Style 124 wheels and three of them have cracks just like this that have all been repaired. I finally gave up and bought a set of Avant Garde M310's.

Repairs run about 75-150

Shoot me an email, see if I can't get that wheel under wholesale.

Would there be any issues with fitting a 7" inner barrel made for a 10" rim with offset +38 on my BMW E39 2001?

Already running 9,5's
