Steel Wheel Repair

Do NOT use heating, welding, or peening in order to repair wheels. These methods are not approved. Do NOT use inner tubes to repair leaky wheels or tires. You can repair porosity in aluminum wheels. If leaks are found in a steel wheel, replace the wheel with a wheel of original equipment quality.
