    I was thinking about doing that actually. Just hoping the guy has time cause I'm only gonna be back in town for a few days...

    Holy shit, that's sketchy looking. I wouldn't put those on any car I cared about.

If anyone can save them its me.
    Well Ive got an old family back home who is a welder so we're gonna fill them all up completely. I wont let these things die (not too confident on putting them on but I'll try and make them decent). Anyway, full refill. ALL OF IT. Then the people at the wheel zone says they'll remachine them free of cost. And I told them this time I'm gonna be there and make sure they do it right. None of this boring straight through bullshit. I wanna fill with aluminum right? Any pointers?

    Only way to go on those wheels is FILL and drill. Nothing wrong with doing it that way.

    Fucking sketchy is an understatement dude. I wouldn't touch those with a 10ft. pole...

    No way I would run those if you even somewhat care about safety.

    I'm friend's with this guy whose dad is a welder, like thats all his family has ever done haha. But would it be any better to just get the holes all filled in with some aluminum? Or am I still asking for death. Otherwise I'm just gonna take my loss and ditch these

    Ah shit. I know I'm slipping when I make mistakes like that. Normally I'm quite the nazi myself. ;)
