Picked up a set of FST wheels have always liked them since the first time I saw them.
Got them for a good price, they are off of an ultra 4 rig and one of them has a flat spot on the inside.
I started working with the one wheel today. Built a block for the inside if the wheel as to spread out the load and started pushing on the flat spot with a bottle jack.
Here and there but with no teal results.
the wheel isn't broken or cracked and I would like to keep things that way.
What are the thought's on applying some heat.
Will it change the structure of the aluminium/ weaken it?
Has anyone tried fixing a wheel before?
Am I wasting my time and should I just put the tire on it and leave it in the rear axle.
Pics incoming.
