Can someone please tell me what vossens are created from?
Cast? (Please no) Flow formed? Going to assume not forged in the least bit.

Thanks for the input guys! I will look around the next several days to see if I can find a reputable wheel repair shop around Mississippi, if there is none, I guess I got a new decoration for my room. Lol

Holly crapers, that was a nice hit! So glad to see that the wheel held up though and didn't crack completely like some wheels do..

Bingo! A picture of the pothole or a mile marker would help out greatly too.
