19" Brabus wheels... Highway blowout!
I had a question about rim repair… I have a pair of 19” Brabus wheels and I had a blowout on the highway. The tire was shred completely off and I rode on rim for about 1,000ft while I slowed down and pulled over. Is this rim repairable or is it completely useless? I was going 80mph when it blew off.
Thank you

You would need to have the wheel taken to a wheel shop and have them look at it. I have had some luck fixing some, but sometimes its not worth it, or they are too badly damaged.
