Steel wheel pitting, solutions?

[dougf]

Hey! Hope everyone is having a great weekend. I had my old tires taken off my steel wheels I bought from someone about a year ago for $6.50 a tire. I have one wheel that is pitted as you can see in the pics. The obvious answer is replace the wheel, but I had to look 6 months just to find the set I have!

So, what have you all had experience with, J.B. Weld spread across then ground smooth on the bead area, body filler, high build primer and repeat coats with sanding ?

I have to move in three-four weeks. My current truck has p255's on them and will not fit on a U-Haul trailor because they are too wide, so I wanted to wire wheel and paint these steel wheels, and put my new rubber on them prior.

Thoughts?
