Reasons to Repair Your Alloy Wheels

Driving a car with worn-out rims or cracked alloys is dangerous. Rim repairs and wheel restoration keep your vehicle roadworthy and ensure optimal performance. If you are debating whether to replace or fix a damaged alloy, here’s why repairing is a smart move:

Cheaper: Repairs are always cheaper than buying a replacement. If the repairs are done by a professional, the results will be durable and long-lasting.
Extra Work: New alloys come with different tyre offsets. That means more work and extra labour charges during installation.
Maintain Resale Value: Shiny, clean, undamaged wheels with good rims have a higher value. This is important when selling a car.
Environmentally Sustainable: Repairing existing rims or alloys is a much more sustainable option.
Time-saver: Complete rim replacement takes time. Your mechanic may need to order a new rim of your choice or one that fits your vehicle. The replacements may take several days to arrive. This leaves you without a car. On the contrary, rim repair is much faster and can often be done within a day or two.

Our Wheel Repair Process

Alloy wheels are striking to look at. However, they are also susceptible to cracks or scuffs over time. For high-quality rim repairs and wheel restoration, bring your car to Avondale Body Works. Our technicians fix cosmetic and structural issues in the alloys, making them road-safe. This is how the process unfolds:

Inspection and Assessment: Our repair specialists inspect and assess the damaged alloy rims. This allows them to gauge the severity of the damage. Accordingly, you will get a time and repair cost estimate.
Wheel Removal: Our experts then remove the wheels from the vehicle. This allows them to work on the back and inner rims. To avoid further damage to the tyres and vehicle, extensive care is taken during wheel removal.
Repair: Depending on the extent of the damage, various repair techniques are employed. They solder cracks to restore the wheel’s strength and straighten any bends or deformations.
Balancing and Alignment: Along with alloy wheel repairs, we also balance and align the wheel for stability. This step ensures your car’s wheels generate minimum vibrations and tyre wear.
Powder Coating and Painting: To restore appearance, we powder coat and colour match the wheel’s appearance. Technicians carefully match the colours and finish to the manufacturer’s specifications or your preference, ensuring a seamless appearance.
