Are those crack lines? Was in the industry for awhile and IMO, some wheel shops will be able to fix it but I definitely wouldn't do it if you brought it to me. Structural integrity is basically gone due to crack lines plus how deep the damage is into the barrel.

structural integrity loss?...great. I guess that's what happens when you mix cheap wheels with bad roads...I was hoping to put these back on my E39 for the winter.

Any time you weld a rim you will lose structural integrity if I am not mistaken... I had a cracked 124, so I sprung for a replacement.
