    Hey, I just suggest probabilities based on past experience...it's all you early summer tire swap folks that tipped the cosmic balance and did this. 

    Hmmm there was that gutted e30 ice racer up for sale a while back. Pity, by now he's probably upped his asking price.

    Yeah...

    I don’t want to say I was the reason for the snow but I might’ve put summers on and then drove around with the top down. 

    Oops.

        Unfortunately I don't think my van will be ready for the e30 picnic.  Planning to drive it to the Hawk vintage races at Road America though.  Hopefully the snow is gone by then...

                    Yes, gives me time to take care of this slow, bead leak I have in one of my summer wheels/tires.  I had the tire pulled off and found this:

                        you could push some Mighty Putty in there. 
                        Glad you caught that. A wheel failure wouldnt be pretty.

                                  The first place I took it to shot me a price of $200 to weld that crack, just to weld it, no refinishing of the area afterward.  I thought that price was SMOKING crack.  That looks like a 1 hour job at most to me.  I was thinking $75-$100, maybe only $50 if I did all the prep work.  Taking it to a local welding guy to look at today.

                                    If you haven’t already gotten it fixed, my buddy would weld it for the price range you’re thinking of(I think). And that would be to gouge it, weld it, and grind it smooth. He is located in Eden, WI if you would be interested.

                                      Oh sorry, it's done and the tire is back on and such, ended up being $50 to groove and tig weld.  Just waiting for the weather, glad I didn't put them on before last Wednesday.
