well eric i fanally got some work done on your wheel,its a hard rubber like i thought,so where the big cracks are i ground down to the bare metal of the wheel,and filled it with jb weld then inserted a bent nail in each big crack,i made the holes like a "I",hoping it will hold it together for you,because im afraid that weather(cold/hot)its going to expand and contract because it is rubber,i was going to use a small belt sander that i bought last year and never used but ,i decided against it and hand sanded it.
after its cured im going to sand it down then use high streangh epoxy made for hard rubber,then sand the whole wheel and primer and paint,boy it had alot of primer on it,lol.john

if i were you i would just shine it up,chroming is very expensive,just use a good aluminum mag wheel polish and it will look great,john,ps by the way do you see where the finger holds are rubbed off,was this wheel rubbing against something?if it was you will have to fix why its rubbing,the wheel is straight.
and if this wheel does crack on you ,in extream cold or heat ,then ill get you another one,i stand behind my work even if its free,john

not that i know of i think its just because its old and the previous owners may have did it. i got the boat for free from one of my neighbors down the road and he got it 10-15 yrs back from someone who tried restoring it
