The stem valve for my tire has a crack in it. I was just wondering how much it would be to replace it? Like if I were to take it to Tire Kingdom or something.

Is it safe to drive on a tire rim that has a 2 inch chunk broken off the rim?

I recently hit a patch of ice and skidded into a curb smashing my car in tire first. The resulting impact took a 2 inch piece from my tire rim but didn not actually create a crack through the the rim. I’m not sure if it’s safe to drive on it.

What are my options for parting with a ‘92 Mercedes with new tires, doesn’t run, needs thousands of $ of work?

Just before I found out it needs at least 4000 dollars of work on it, I put new tires on it. It doesn’t run, has a crack in windshield. Can I get anything out of it at all and who would want it?
