I wonder if anyone has any experience with this problem. I bought a couple of wheels from Craigslist this summer, mainly for the tires and thought it'd be nice to have a spare set of wheels for track days or whatever. The front tire won't hold air overnight & today I found out why... It is leaking air through cracks (as far as I can tell), where the brake rotor mounting bosses meet the rim, on 4 out of 6 of them! Has anyone ever seen this or know if it can be reasonably repaired? This rim looks like it's seen it's fair share of rough track day tire changes, but I wouldn't expect that kind of damage... It's leaking from the 4,6,8,& 12 o'clock positions (rotor mounting bosses)    |
