    cracked rims, help pls

    Ok, my tires have been losing pressure constantly so i was thinking maybe its punctured. I took it off today & found out that my rims have a crack on the lip. (inner side of the wheels) I have a rev boost 17" a.k.a. rs213 or excel bk7. I know these are not expensive rims but i dont have money to buy a new set right now. Do wheel dealers sell them in 1s or 2s? Should have opted for 16"s with 45 series tires than these 17s with 40 series. Too late for that now. Suggestions please

    yeah u can buy one wheel just go do that. one time i cracked one of my rims and couldnt find a replacement cuz they were discontinued so i went to goodyear express tire and got one of their credit cards and charged a new set to it then just paid it off within the 6mo no interest time.

    I found a place that fixes rims. They weld cracks and straighten bends but im not sure if its worth it. Where can i get 1 rim. I tried wheelmax and wheelsnext but they wont sell me just 1. Not even 2

    1010tires doesnt have them. I found a place in Union city that'll fix it for 140 bucks. If there's a place that sells them in 1s. I'd rather just buy. Better and cheaper. I need to get this fixed soon before an accident happens if the crack gets bigger enough to crack my rims open
