I was going to take a photo, but decided it would show nothing. But I could post one if you like!

Here we go diesel dandy. Pic below. All 4 look about same and they had the typical cracking before.
Only materials used were 3M 5200 Black and some acetone. Tools were brass brush, toothbrush, a strip of sand paper, glue brush to spread the 5200.
To apply: Rear wheels off ground and rotate by hand. Roughen up surface a bit with coarse sandpaper & brass brush. Thoroughly clean with acetone again using brass brush or toothbrush. Squeeze on some 5200 in stretched area. Dab it into cracks first. Then "paint" it over entire surface. Try to build up some thickness. Leave car jacked and rotate wheel from time to time until 5200 firms up. Give a second coat before 5200 fully cures. Repeat turning wheel until it firms up.
Best to not use car for about 3-5 days after final coat. Cures faster if humidity is high. Slow in dry conditions.
Seems Fast Cure only available in white.
Black Standard 3M 5200.

Used the 5200, because it has excellent adhesion to almost anything. Other products may work, but this was one that I had experience with in marine applications.
