Herder 2,354 #1 Posted July 11, 2021 I've seen Expanding Foam used for many different things before but this was a first. Well I don't recommend you use it to repair a wheel. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The open cannel in the wheel had at one point sheet steel welded over it from the factory, I've seen them patched before but never filled in with foam. A lazy quick fix. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
