Default Yes. IForged Flux (I cant remember the price). Repairs/work done as follows

I had a custom finish done to them at iirc 300 per tire plus mounting new tires (so maybe 340 per wheel). There was some small curbing that was repaired at this time.

Last year I cracked a barrel and it cost iirc $120 to true and weld plus $40 to unmount a mount a tire.

I have my work done at The Wheel Guy in New Rochelle NY. He has a metalurgy degree and works magic with wheels.
