350z Wheel cracked
if my wheel is cracked in 2 spots does it make sense to recondition or just to buy a new one?

Replace the wheel asap. I wouldn't bother repairing any cracks in the barrel as they will eventually come back.

structural crack = discontinue use immediately until a replacement wheel is installed.

It's going to cost you 150-175 to fix the wheel(which is not guaranteed by any shop). Might as well pay a little more and get one used off ebay
