I might buy Welds again.But,I just wanted mostly to warn everyone to be cautious and aware of the posibility of this dangerous defect.I`m telling you this wheel almost came in two.I`ve bought my first set of big tires in`77(14.50/37x16.5)and have run all kinds of wheels,from wagon wheels to Welds.Never seen failure like this.And,this is my work truck.Not something that gets romped.I think if I was the maker of this wheel,I would have been decent about it and replaced it,also.If I had farther to drive that day before stopping,it would have seperated completely.
