if you don't have the puller, take it to the the dealer or an indy and let them pull the bearings for you. or whats left of it. if the outer race isn't blue or discolored from excessive heat i doubt the bearing is welded into the hub. wheel bearings in the hubs are one tight ****'in fit.. simple prying and light hammering won't get them out.

Highly unlikely you need a new wheel. Some of those are so tight, hammering and slidehammer type pullers with not touch them. The correct puller will pull it right out...buy one or take it to the dealer.

Take your time and use a dremel to cut the outer race in half if the bearings busted. You probably didn't actually weld the steel race to an aluminum hub. Take your time and don't scar the inner hub and you'll save the wheel. Heat helps, but don't warp anything.
