    If you can't get it fixed let me know. I can take care of it for you and it will be fixed right. I've had my Centerlines and Boyds both fixed multiple times. I've even welded pieces back in that you thought couldn't be put back and the wheels turn out like new. You can't beat a forged aluminum wheel because the possibilities they have for repairs. I wouldn't buy a new yet.

    ya its not real bad but the metal looks stressed it only aabout 3 inches long
    it just sucks u think it will make it weaker when they repair it

    It depends on how much they have to heat it. Being a forged wheel and not being bent bad you'll probably be ok. You'll always weaken a wheel when messing with the integrity of the aluminum but I've had mine fixed and welded with no issues and my wheels were purchased in 1993. I wouldn't be too concerned with a Centerline as long as it's forged.
