It is fixable, don't listen to the clown up above.

That wheel will probably cost you ~$200 to repair... there is a good place here in Seattle but I don't know about California... look in the phone book or google it.

haha. its fixable sure. but the rim is already weak because of the crack and trying to throw a new alumimnum on their is not going to last. and 200 for that ****. plz. you would rather get a new wheel. oh and tire shops are not going to remount a tire on a rewelded wheel.
