Yes they can be welded and refinished by any decent and hopefully reputable wheel shop. I have had several chromed rims refinished and repaired without a problem, the only question is, is the cost of the work worth it to you.

yeah, I would guess you could probably buy new by the time you paid to have them fixed. I have never had it done but I bet it isn't cheap. And I think I would feel better knowing they were new and hadn't been cracked and fixed. But like Scorprius said any decent and reputable shop could do a great job but it's just hard to find those kinds of shops every where.
