I’ve had a lot of luck with tireject for both nails in the tire (once removed) and the slow leak from the tire not sealing against the rim properly.
Sometimes I use fix-a-flat can to stop slow leak, But in this case when I saw the crack, I have no choice but to get the wheel fixed before i can use it again. But thanks for the advice.
Thanks for watching!!!👍
Are those wheels BMW OEM or replicas? BMW wheels are typically light weight and forged so you'd more than likely end up with a bend rather than a crack. Cracks are prominent in cast wheels so usually less common on a BMW so curious what type of wheel this is.
Those are OEM wheels from my BMW M235i than I'm using on my 128i, I think I hit a pretty deep pot hole once that is why it's cracked.
I'm also surprised when I saw this, first time I have a cracked wheel.
I didn't see any dent on the outside part of the wheel that is why I didn't think that it was a cracked.
Thanks for watching!!!👍
I have fixed a flat by removing a screw and screwing in a bigger screw with silicon cailking on it. It held untill i replaced my tires a year later
Kinda like a similar concept on this screw in tire plug. Maybe somebody did the same way, screwing a bigger screw with silicone caulking and turn this idea into a business.
So the screw on your tire lasted about a year plugging the hole, Amazing!
Thanks for watching!!!👍
Driving on a wheel that's cracked. That is cracked!
Lucky for me that I've decided to fix the flat instead just filling up with air and keep driving the car until the wheel totally gives up and create an accident.
I'm searching now for a replacement for this wheel, Thanks for watching!!!👍
I would replace that rim for safety reasons
Yes I already have that plan in mind, As soon as I see the same mag on the used market, I will buy that wheel for sure.
Thanks for watching!!!👍
That fix is temporary, it'll last for maybe several months. The rim is aluminum which needs to be welded as you can see the beads, but welding will cause the aluminum to loose strength, which will crack again in the heat affected zone. Those cracks are fatigue cracks which means that rim, and all your rims really, have reached the end of their service life. Aluminum has a thing called fatigue life, this is the reason why aircrafts after so much use time parts needs to be replace no matter if it shows signs of failures or not. This is very common with using low profile tires. In this case your wheels are a consumable. My sister's forge rims had same cracks as you have and she did the same thing had them fixed by welding but after several months other cracks appeared. When I saw the cracks I told her no sense in fixing something that is at the end of service life. I told her not to use over size rims with ultra low profile tires, 21" wheels, those wheels will never last. She went back to 19" wheels with taller profile which will last the life of the car.
Also the people that operate the Ring Taxi at the Nubergring replace their wheels every two or three set tires. They consider the wheels as consumables. They use BMWs as their choice of cars.
Thanks for the advice, I will definitely look for a replacement wheel for this set up, I didn't know OEM wheel can be this fragile, I thought they are strong and last longer than the aftermarket wheels.
Anyway thanks for the advice and Thanks for watching!!!👍
