Wheel dented - repairable ?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Had a slight mishap yesterday, hit a large square edged flag stone at about 30mph, dented the wheel and seems like a few metal shards from the wheel slashed the sidewall, had to get a mobile tyre repair firm out, they only had a budget tyre (aptany) in stock, it sealed on the wheel ok and get me home and it's still up this morning, would the wheel be easily repairable or am i looking at a new one 😮

 

Drove fine on the 40 mile journey home, no steering wheel vibration, Will get the tracking and steering checked tomorrow :thumbs:

Easily repaired by a wheel specialist providing the "flat" comes out.

 

Wheels and tyres are in stock if required.

 

I have full sets and singles available.

^^ they are V1 alloys, mine are V2.

 

Been to a few places locally, none would touch it or would have to sent it away and then they couldn't be 100% it would be fixed.

 

So Guys, any one got a decent alloy wheel for sale :shrug:

New wheels and tyres :thumbs:

 

The front tyres have been on for about 7.5 years (since new) so needed replacing very soon anyways :blush:
