I had to do that to one rim, that was the one the tire guy mislead me about,shame on me for not knowing at the time, but I was out of town working just the same. The stem/valve just came apart, so I took the tire off, repaired the rim, cleaned and painted the inside with cold galv spray, the old hole was corroded just a bit too much, so I welded that, ground the interior smooth, drilled a new hole, could have made flat spot too, but did not think of it for some reason. That one has done 7 years of service, new tube, and CACL loaded again. This one has done a lot of work since.
The holes on these rims look fine, I think the darned cores are leaking past the caps and its dropped down onto the rim. Looks like it sat like that, as there is one worse area on each rim. Previous owner said it was like that since he got it 200 hours before I did, but I think both owners missed or ignored it. Worst case I've got to weld a patch into the middle, flat plate but rounded to match, be nice to not have a weld profile visible on the exterior, but assume once welded fully in place, done right you could grind both sides down and have a solid rim that you can't tell was repaired ?
I'm just concerned with thickness of metal, maybe there's enough left to clean off the rust and repaint without having to go any further. its just the one area on each one that flaked up.
