If it cracked once, getting it repaired wont make it as strong as it originally was so it may, and quite probably will crack again, would you feel safe driving on it knowing that could happen?

nothing is safe these days, i'd definitely feel safe as long as the wheel is turning smoothly
 i'll probably just get the wheel replaced if i ever find someone selling one... i have another rim that needs re-rolling - but it's only a slight damage, not cracked. I got the wheels for free with meaty tyres, so whatever I spend will be justifiable I am a little confused at why anything over 2" wheel diameter is not roadworthy, i put the other 2x 19's on the front of my car and it grips like its on rails
