Default 18inch yokohama advan genuine japanese rim

Hi, I just noticed this today. My Genuine, 18inch Yokohama Japanese Rim has a Cracked Spoke. These rims are not meant to crack at all. Does anyone know if this can be repaired, or anyone know of where I can buy just one rim. Why would this have just suddenly happen?

Seems like a fault with the rim, as I can assure I havent hit anything that im aware of to cause this happening.

ADVAN Wheels - AVS Model F7

Interested in peoples comments who could help me out, as i currently have a spacesaver rim on my car and im not keen to drive far with it on.

Im willing to sell these 4 rims, 3 brand new with achilles tyres and 1 damaged rim. Willing to negotiate. Any tyre and wheel packages available that I could trade in on?

So you have the other 3 18" rims still on the car with a space saver?
If you do, dont drive it. They have different rolling diameters and it will fuck your diff.

Hard to tell from those photos. Need closer up without so much light relfected.

Default re 18inch Rim

Thanks for your advice, I will try and take a better photo soon.

Would anyone have a 17inch or 18inch spacesaver rim or crappy rim with half decent tread to buy just for this moment, so i can drive the car for the weekend at least? or even as a loan?
