Sounds like you did a great job. However, the wheel is exposed to forces that simply can't be replicated without sophisticated equipment. The wheel will, more than likely, crack again in the repaired location once it getss to rolling down the highway (assuming your repaired a crack...if you just built up the bead from curb rash, then it should hold just fine). I hope that I am proven wrong. The 2000 rod certainly has it's applications, repairing cracked/broken wheels is just not one of them, IMO.
