After speaking to a friend, I have started to wonder: Is it unsafe to use second hand wheels on my mini? Will they randomly break while driving?

old alloys can suffer from cracks. I personally would have any old alloys crack tested before use. Old steels should be ok just check for any excessive corrosion or wear where the wheel nuts locate.

Ok, that makes sense. Would a wheel shop be able to do a crack test? Like the people who do wheel balancing and refurbish wheels.

Thing is I had to get two of the wheels refurbished and so I asked the people at a mag refurbishment place to check all four and they said they were fine.

I am not really one for stretchers but if you want to do it just go for it. I did that with getting a tattoo and I now have a stick man on my wrist because of that haha

On average you could get one for around a 1000 pounds that would be relatively clean and wouldn't require much work.

She lives in Morningside, Durban. Is that anywhere near you?
Dec 26 2014 10:32 PM -
Vinay-RS
Nope. I'm im Cape Town. Though I wouldn't get a car from Durban either, more likely to have some rust. Well I guess she could just search for a while. There was a van for sale here for R3000 which is... wait for it... 194 pounds!
