here's a good quote from my Hunter sales rep.
" you can balance an egg, but that doesn't mean it's round."
so it looks like there is one spot that sweeps .060 then. that's a good amount, but if you did the same run out test on the tire and then rotated it's high spot to the wheels lowest spot you might never feel it. fairly common thing to do. and that is why a lot of tires have the high spot marked.
all of that being said I would not run that wheel. simply because you have no idea what had to be done to get it to the condition it's in now. how much heat they had to put to it, was it pressed back into shape, machined and so forth. it obviously had a fracture and there is probably a lot of fatigue in that area and who knows what the welding did to the strength of the wheel. it is also obvious that it was overheated a great deal in order to warp it.
