    The damage is still repairable but it will cost you. But in the long run it will just give you headaches especially when it cracks again in the same weakened area.

    So my opinion would be to replace it.

    Replacement is necessary in this case, why put practicality over safety...

    it wont last long either, kung hindi po sa inyo sa ibang driver ng ride nyo

    accidents do happen unexpectedly!!!

    Just replace it.

    Spending time and money just to repair that wheel is not worth it.
