Default Can you repair/fix this?

Cracked my wheel and wondering if this is repairable? If so, is it safe to repair it or just buy a new wheel?

the crack definitely can be repaired... its an easy one even... anyone with some aluminum tig welding experience can repair the crack, then if its bent, a wheel repair shop can most likely true it (depending on how much distortion)... or just take it to a wheel repair shop to start and have them do it all...
