Default need to fix my rims

I have a crack and a few scratches in my rims and i would like to know if anyone knows of a place locally that will be able to do the job, and if they can also refinish them in clack chrome it will be a big plus.

thanks for your help in advance.

First ? is what kinda rims are they? Depending on the wheel it might be cheaper sometimes to buy a new rim...

No experience in the area, but I would feel uncomfortable riding on a rim that was cracked at any point in the past, especially if you drive on the highway. Metal, once stressed, is not a very forgiving creature... just because it looks good doesn't mean it's safe.

I guess it's done all of the time, so if it's done correctly I suppose there's no danger in it, but I would break down and purchase a new rim if I were in your shoes.
