My 1999 328i is fitted with 18 inch BMW alloys, when changing the brake pads i noticed that one of the rims was cracked on the inside, anyone seen this before?? and is it repairable?

John Clark in Aberdeen Reckon that the wheel has a a severe bump, although I know it hasn't, They also discovered that the other rear wheel also had a crack!! cost to replace is 218.00 + VAT each!!, I managed to get exact replicas for £126.00 inc vat and they are the same size, I would suggest checking the rims on your cars if they have 18 inchers
