The liquid 2 tube application of jb weld does work. As long as u hammer the wheel back in shape where the bead will set. Being a factory worker you'd be surprised what gets used on you guys cars and jb weld or something similar is one of the things that gets used on minor cracks. Foreman sneaks alot of stuff past quality to save a 99 percent good part. Now for my own personal story I had a slow leak on my challenger rt. Bought it brand new from the dealership and 2014 and come 2020 i got a slow leak. So i took the tire off preparing to jb weld the rim and what you know factory had already put a patch of jb weld putty on my rim that shift off this past winter enough to expose the small crack and my warranty just went out or i would have had them give me a new rim. But I cleaned and prepped and refilled the area before doing a decent patch of 3 layers of liquid jb weld. Back solid. So a small cheaper piece of putty the plant put on lasted 6 years it will be fine on oem rims.
That's interesting! My only concern is now the wheel is out of balance because of that additional weight being put on the wheel! You should go get it balanced bud! Thanks for the comment man, super interesting
,do it from the inside of the rim the air pressure will force it into the crack instead of off the crack
This is actually a good idea, however if it were to fall off inside it would damage the inside of the tire and rim and might cause worse damage.. anyways it was repaired at a tire shop 100%
@@GarageNineteen it wouldnt fall off. the reason yours fell off is you attached the weld to a tire that was constantly changing shape. its like attaching bubblegum to a sheet of paper and a rock and throwing it. the paper will separate..
I did this with the 2 part liquid form. It lasted a few years. I also put tire slime in there and i prob had to fill it every few months. Only my Work car though 💁
Try to use to use jb weld cold weld the steel sticks is not made for alloys crack fix
Good thing I watched this video, I have the same problem right now and was considering buying this product. Even though my rim is not as bad as yours but it cracked on the same spot where it once was weld. I think the best thing for me is to take it to a good shop and have it weld again and pay 150 which is what's gonna cost me instead of having to buy this and deal with the same problem after. Thanks for this video.
Exactly, just get it done properly! Good luck
Do both sides of rim in and out
Not made for that heavy of a repair but, excellent for other small jobs. Used on a motorcycle kickstand after lowering a Motorcycle’s suspension. Had to shorten kick stand 1-1/2 to match and used this same exact putty to reattach the shortened bottom. Holds great but, of course I’m gonna tack it once I get a chance at my buddies shop.
Worth a shot though on the rims for the price and for the labor $$ saved at a shop. You know if you don’t have a friend they are gonna 🔨🔩💸💵💸.
That's why I tried lmfao wanted a quick temporary fix
My boy. You would use this on your motorcycles kick stand that bends and twists especially in the breeze but not a rim? You’re wild
You need the two part JP weld The only way that stuff would ever work the one that you're using you got to buy heat it's for exhaust leaks but that doesn't withstand anything else but when you use a two-part JB well even on exhaust heat it's very strong but if you're having mag wheels aren't those metal you could have just welded them on
I wonder if it would of been better if you didn't stuff it against the tire. Because it might be opening up the seal of the tire against the rim.
Just saw 3 different vids and this and yeah ur right .
Repaired my srt8 wheels with that...and worked fine
Proof it COULD work people!!! Thanks for the comment buddy!!
@@GarageNineteen did i see your plate right and you're from quebec?
@@superpug666 Ya man!! From Montreal!
Hey....next time.... take off the tire...... put the JB weld on each side!....where the tire and the rim meets then sand it down
You should have done without tyre on it
U Used the Wring Kind Buddy but Welding it Is B
much Better
Got it welded at a shop bud!
It’s burning his hands though the gloves🧤. I thought that’s what gloves were were for lol.
it genuinely was getting hot lol
I like my rims to that's why lm looking at yo video 👍
Look I couldn't even patch the damn garden hose with JB weld. I guess water pressure from garden hose is too strong so it just punctures it. Well if it fails, I just buy another hose. But putting that on a wheel and drive around 80 mph? LOL
Did it for science ! Now we all know
At least try the jb weld pair
A for effort.
😂😂😂
He should have a Bicycle please
The wheel is prob out of shape as well so it’ll need to be rolled also. Mat cost you a couple 100 dollars
I had to go get it done professionally! I explained at the end of the vid :)
How much was the repair?
It doesn’t work, I’ve tried everything and ended up having to buy a new rim for my BMW. My rim was cracked by the tire guy when I got new tires and he didn’t tell me.
Michael Jones That’s sofucked up dude lol
Yeah same shit happened to me. My bmw style 128 wheel got slice by the tire guy machine inside the rim and later crate it hairline crack.
sorry to hear bud!
The answer to this video is @ 9:20
By the time I figured things out 😂 yeah man, hands were Throbbing
@@GarageNineteen thanks for trying it out for us tho. Im dealing with this issue myself. Might just save my time and find a good repair shop
@@817monchis817 honestly something around 100 to 150$ is what you should pay for a good job. Gold luck man !!!
Could have had a new wheel for another
3 or 400$
But then that’s another 3-400$... when you’re a student money is slim and tight .. so we make due
My boss wheels are discontinued...
Some people don’t got money like that dawg
take the tire off and put jb on both sides would do better but you’d need a tire machine :(
8:05... so, did you kill anyone?
Nope
The bigger the gob the better the job.
That’s what she said?
Use the original one it has a strength of 5000 psi, steel stick has only 900 psi strength. Lol.
Interesting, thanks for sharing!
"son of a bitch"🤣
It iz what it iz ahhaha
You want to know why it didn’t work cause you used the wrong one and!!! You didn’t do both sides of the crack that’s why and yes it will work cause am doing it right now as I text this out he just didn’t do right
Jaime Holguin okay relax bud, you’re not the first person to comment that lollll it’s a ghetto ass way to fix something anyways, just get it welded properly
Oh am chill am just saying you didn’t wrong is all
@@joedirt2768 So do a correct video an show us all how to do it properly!
Lmao 😂, you are magical fool
At least I’m magical 🧙♀️
Wrong materials; wrong application. What *might* work is a low melt ally 'welding rod' if you can get enough heat into the rim. Propane or butane would struggle, so you'd have to go for oxy/ace and be extremely careful as it's quite capable of melting steel. I do a lot of dabbling in engineering in my home workshop, so I own butane, propane, oxy/ace, stick and MIG. Next stop TIG and plasma arc cutters.
As mentioned at the end of the video, I brought it to a shop, and he welded it properly! thanks though
You can't patch a hole in a boat from the inside, same principle.
Didnt hurt me to try. Got a video out of it and answered the question if it was possible.
Well in his case the air is going outward so he should have patch his “boat” from the inside.
Three adages apply here: 1. "You get what you pay for," 2. "Life is hard; it's harder if you're stupid," and 3. "Amateurs don't get professional results." Why you would even attempt to trust the structural integrity or your life to something that comes in a tube is beyond me, but at least you finally got to the right decision.
it was more for fun than anything, a mere test to see what would happen. I did not push the car hard or go on a road trip, I drove it moderately around my neighbourhood and it came off on its own lol. But yes, I eventually came to the right decision haha.
if the rest of the car is " fixed " like this ......you should get arrested-
driving around with that cracked rim in public traffic ? ....try to oil your brakes better and go the steepest hill you can find.
Read the comments or at least stick around to the end of the video... was fixed professionally. Thanks for the waste of time of a comment kid
I've been driving my cadillac cts on 20x8.5 with both back rims cracked. The rims are Vogue CV-7 which are no longer made but are very beautiful rims. i can't find any replacements. I had the rims repaired by a machine shop but the repairs held less than a week. waste of 400 dollars. i think i'll just slap jb weld on the inside this time. i've seen other people with big rims that used jb weld with some success.i have one rim off the car now, because i could see the crack was starting to run. the other crack is still tiny and stable but i fear it will begin running as well. fuck me
@@r3wturb0x51 honestly I'm curious how that will turn out--another person commented and had suggested the same thing! Let me know how it goes?
If you fellas are going to fix a crack in the wheel...to prevent the crack from going any farther or cracking more later... drill a small hole at the end of the crack. Then...fill your crack/s and drill hole with whatever youre using, ON THE INSIDE OF WHEEL!!! Let cure for recommended time, then sand flush. Remount your tire back onto repaired wheel...good to go!
Bro those are cracked badly not just hairline
I was 19 ok lol 😂
@@GarageNineteen yikes
You use it in wrong method that's the reason why it doesn't work
Did you make it to the end of the video
Why would you use that shit? Just get it welded
I did lol.. end of video bro
Lmao
That was some shitty job 😂😂
Arrêtez de mettre n'importe quoi sur internet !!! Il faut souder la jante, dévoilée et rectifiée par un professionnel. Quand on ne connait pas, on ne fait pas. avis d'un réparateur de jante en France.
C'était pour ma curiosité, et pour montrer qu'il n'est pas une bonne méthode.......
Ok, mais beaucoup de gens font çà et continue de rouler avec. Seulement, la fissure s'agrandit en roulant et c'est très dangereux. Amicalement.
@@omhamad9300 Je le sais, c'est pour ça que je voulais terminer mon vidéo en disant que ça ne marche pas et de le faire réparer.... écoute au moins le totale du vidéo la prochaine fois mon ami
Il faut que tu comprennes que TH-cam c'est international. Il y a des gens qui ne regarde que la video sans comprendre ta langue. Je sais que tu n'es pas responsable mais quand je vois la réponse à msdshandy, je pense que ton réparateur ne t'a pas expliqué le fonctionnement d'une soudure sur jante et les contraintes mécaniques de la jante, ce qui aurait été plus intéressant...
You drive a BMW and you cant afford a new rim? Your risking your life and others who drive on the road with you...
Listen since you dont know anything, I repaired my mag at a shop. And I can afford a BMW because I know how to save my money and use it when its needed... but thank you for your concern
Cracked rims should not be repaired it should be replaced.
Especially if you have multiple cracks on it. Not only that look at all the weights add on the rim to make it balance the rim is bent. Bet you have crazy vibrations at high speeds. I don’t know much but I know what happens when a wheel fails while driving at high speeds.
knows not to worry about high speeds, everything checks out. And my presumption is they balance it.. if it isnt balanceable then they would tell me I would hope to believe ... if they want to make money by selling me a new tire or something right? But anyways i get your concern, but I made sure to spend the money to have it properly redone in an oven and all
You all be useing cheep as cars abd trucks but you dont know the struggles of trying to find a bmw parts trying buying one and affording it you cant👿
@@emiliosolis8227 preach brother
Thanks for the info, you’re are so cute
Glad to help buddy !
Lol

it was for fun, tried it out lol didnt work

Lololol i wasted 9 minutes of my life watching this joke.
You’re welcome 😂

I think we were all students at a point in our lives. That's the nicest way I can respond to you.
😅🤣😂👎
Lol yeah don’t recommend it
