cheers to everyone who's pm'ed me
i got the damaged rim out to take a pic of the crack and actually noticed the rim is also flat spotted where the crack is and where the rim is pinned together, its starting to come apart
so gonna try and find another rim if possible
so if anyone has a 32 spoke chrome sun chinook rim (made in usa ie no eyelets, not designed in usa ie has eyelets) let me know
