Just bought a set of 17 rota Revs on craigslist, we met in great mall at Mcdonald parking lot (I know! I should've known!) he was a nice guy and all the wheels were in boxes and I looked at all of them and they looked fine, gave him the money and left.. now at home I see one of the spokes on one of the rims is crackaked all the way around :/ the a-hole just gave me his first name and he never gave me a phone number... anyone knows if I can repair the crack or it's not repairable.. if it is, anyone knows any good place?
the cool thing is that the idiot had new wheels on his car and he put the wheels he was selling in those boxes and he has his name and address on one of the boxes! if I can't repair it, I'm gonna show up at his house!

 

just go to his house...talk to him?

 

There is a chance he had no idea. On the other hand there is a chance he is just that dumb.

 

You could email the pics you took and try to negotiate a slight refund.

 

how much u guys think it will cost to repair?

 

probably more than those wheels are worth...what did you pay for them?

 

$180

 

u paid 180 for a set of rotas? thats a pretty good deal

maybe u can sell the 3 that arent broken for more than 180

 

yea, it would probably cost you like $100 just to get that small crack fixed.

 

yeah I might just get it fixed.. I got them for my winter tires.. I dunno how i missed it :/
anybody knows a good place for repair?

 

You can repair a crack that went all the way around?

 

I'm also curious ?!?

 

sell the other 3 wheels and buy another set. I wouldn't roll around on damaged goods.

it's fixable.
go to his house and tell him to cover the cost of repair
on the other side, what can you get for $180? steelies?
it was a good deal anyways. Call wheeldude, he can sell you one rim just for lil bit more than you'd spend fixing your rims

 

I've heard good things about wheel techniques in Santa clara. Just google it. I'm sure they can tell you if it's fixable.
