After 26K miles I discovered that all 4 rims (Star Spoke 124) have cracks.
Is it OK to weld it, or I must get new rims?
It is 550i 2007 w/sport

Anyhow welded 3 rims(one had two cracks) and the 4th was bended, so fixed it too. Cost me $280.
Put brand new tires Michelin PS a/s plus
Drove about 500 miles (400 highway). So far so good. Haven't noticed any difference,except switching from RFT to non-RFT gives more smooth ride.
I decided to switch to M166s for summer. Any recommendation on good mechanic/tire specialist in NYC area?
