    I'd say your buying a new rim.

    PS that's amazing it is still holding air.

        If you have the piece AB wheel can fix it and you won't be able to tell it was ever broken off. Cant say if they could fill it though.

            ^ wrong. This wheel had a larger piece missing than his, came out like this.

                Alberta Wheel repair, it was a few years ago. They fixed two wheels with chunks out of them like yours and curb rash on two other wheels for $500. I was lucky enough to still have the pieces from the wheel though, not sure in your case.

                        ^Yep hence why "I suck" both times were accidental honestly. Today I hit a patch of ice while doing a slow turn. Hence why the mag is only broken, no deflated tire or bent wheel or anything.

                          FWIW and considering those are VMRs i'd just buy a new wheel and forget about fixing something.. take the broken one and make it a watering hose wheel

                            I was going to say this. Genuine BBS are one thing, VMRs are another. I'd feel better about a new wheel (even if it's a little more expensive) than I would about fixing it. Looks like it's time for winters!

                              ^The tricky part is finding a vmr seller that will agree to sell me a single wheel..... Already asked for a shipping quote from a shop in CA, will hear from them probably tomorrow... Otherwise I am not in a hurry right now, getting my winter wheels either tomorrow or thursday. Meanwhile I will pay for a taxi...

                              Winters can't get here fast enough seriously.
