thats a very typical issue with low end wheels.... Transwheel in tampa fixes them, but it might cost you more than the wheel....

Quality at its finest lmao. I don't even see the markings saying it passed as an acceptable wheel.

Don't bother fixing it. I had this problem before and it just got worst after it was fixed.. It will never be the same before the crack. Either find a replacement or find a new set of wheels.

Pepboys used to sell them. I'm almost certain they still do.
