Can this Black 10 spoke be repaired?
I don't know a whole lot about wheels, but I have a scratch around the edge of my rim, can this be repaired in any way?

Just had two right side wheels out for repair and repainting after curbing the car in a loop around! It was a total of 400.00 for both wheels and It was much worse than your picture! What did you do? Is that dirt from water drying on dirt, or a crack on the inner portion of the wheel.

Take a black wide sharpy marker and color it in. you would be surprised how much it will blend it after. You will only see it if you look for it or while cleaning wheels.
Don't ask me how I know. :facepalm: |

You could always try Plasti-dip... that seems to be the fix all for everything on here. The answere to you question is yes.

Yes they can be repaired.... I had mine done, and the repair is flawless but the paint peeled after I tried some different wheel cleaner. I am not happy at all with the factory coat on the 10 spoke black wheel, so I am likely going to have the set powder coated.

These black wheels can be fixed at home cheap. I bought prep/cleaner to get all the grease and dirt off and then used fine grit sandpaper to get the scratches out, used dupli color de1634 I believe, it's a high temp engine enamel, satin black. All done and looks new.
