CharlieGSXR Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Hit a pothole and bent alloy, do we think it can be repaired? Quote
Almeida1234 Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Could be But it might cost less to get a single wheel from breaker or eBay. Quote
GIXXERUK Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Could be But it might cost less to get a single wheel from breaker or eBay. +1 cheaper and I would personally feel safer with a replacement That's quite a ding ! Quote
gsexr Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Off topic i know but what do you think of the Maxxis tyres ? Quote
CharlieGSXR Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Off topic i know but what do you think of the Maxxis tyres ? I work in the motortrade so get tyres on the cheap, Im not massively experienced in driving being 21 years old but i do really like these tyres. For the price i paid they do perform very well. Not span out and believe me iv come close!! Very good in wet and can use the power to come out of a tight corner with no drama. I have also taken my friends out in the car and they can't believe the grip level Quote
Akiragost Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Take a pic of it and where the pothole was and send it to your local council complaining about the roads you paid tax to have sorted. Ask for reimbursement Quote
tomdotc Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Yes certainly repairable. Depends where you get it repaired but at my local, it'll cost £50 to get put right. Quote
Darren350 Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Sounds silly but does it drive differently now? Wheel wobble etc? I know at the first front of your mind is to fix the wheel but a knock like that MAY have done further damage to other suspension parts? Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Quote

Keyser Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Can you not reverse home and see if it comes out again? Sorry That looks like a specialist wheel company could sort it for you - Matt took his and a wheel I had down to get them straightened and they were perfect Edited April 23, 2014 by Keyser Quote
