Default SSR ex-c mesh damaged...Is it repairable? (pics inside)

Should I just try and find a used barrel or is this repairable? You cant really see it but there is deep scoring on the inner lip face.

I've had really good luck with Ye Old Wheel Shop in Elkridge MD. They've fixed two of my SSR Comps that were center bent. Wheels America would not even touch them.

Send them the wheel and they'll tell you if they can't fix it.

send me the specs of that wheel and it can probably roll again but doubt it will ever be 100% again as far as cosmetics and trueness goes.

I would suggest sending them the photos first, before sending them the wheel(s).

Also, you're probably already aware of this, but those tires look like they're cracked and should not be used.

That shop is very old school. No internet, no web site, just a phone. They are so busy that they don't even open boxes until they are ready to work on the wheels (they have about a two-week lead time these days). I agree that it would be best for them to look at pics first, but there is a good chance they won't. Can't hurt to ask, I suppose.

Do some web searching and you'll find that they are very good at what they do.

You can always send them a photo by mail.
