Do you think that this wheel can be fixed

Pws 7 March 2005 05:36:55
 This wheel was on the front of a miata, luckily not mine, that hit a
curb and appears to have suffered some damage. Do you think that it may
be possible to fix this one? ;-)­

Depends on your definition of "fix".

Sure, there are three methods:

Southern = duct tape
Western = bailing wire
Hi Tech = JB Weld

Good luck.... <GD&R>

I am going with the Southern hi-tech redneck approach. First, a liberal
supply of JB Weld followed by duct tape, both inside and outside. It
should be good as new. There may be some trouble with balancing, but
miatas aren't that sensitive to wheel balance anyway. :-)­

Until now I thought Leon had the RAMMM Tongue-in-Cheek Award wrapped up.

No.

O' ye of little faith!

That was a joke, not a good one, but a joke. Don't worry, I'm not
quitting my day job. :-)­
This is just the most wasted wheel that I have ever seen from any miata
wreck and I thought some people might get a kick out of seeing the
pictures, especially since it is so slow right now in this newsgroup.
