so i put a huge crack in my 19 x 8 mille miglia action sport wheels. which they dont make any more (i think).
so i'm done with 19's until i can afford some forged ones.
my tires are in great shape though. 90% at least left !! 235/35/19ZR kumho mx
anyone willing to trade for stock rubber or anything comprable??
i can swap photos for all willing parties

honestly its a good deal, but your better off just putting them up on ebay and purchasing some stock rubber, you can probably make some income on it or buy some high quality rubber for your stockies.

i had a crack in my mm emotion and they are discontinued. I was gonna toss them but i got the crack welded. Not at a wheel shop but by a normal welder that had aluminum rods. I have welded steel but never aluminum...i guess its a little tougher. But anyway. Out of the whole set none of them are unbent. But they all balanced even the one with the weld. It still drives smooth as well. I would say go for that if you can. Just take the tire off and take it to a local welders shop and see what they can do. It shouldn't be too much cash.

Good idea. I would try that first if you have a desire to keep the wheels. BTW yes aluminum is harder to weld b/c it can be disasterious if you over heat.
