Cracked Alloy Wheel - Alloy Wheel Repair in Bognor Regis and Surrounding Areas

We often attend customers who originally come to us with a suspected puncture.

This week in West Sussex, we've had two jobs where the customer thought they had a puncture, only for me to check and find that it was actually a cracked wheel from hitting a pothole.

In both cases the customers asked me to get the wheels repaired for them. In order to do this, we put the car onto an axle stand and took the wheel away to a company that specialises in aluminium welding.

We then remove the tyre and hand the wheel over to them, for an alloy wheel repair, you're usually looking at around a two day turn around. Once the wheel has been repaired, the tyre is refitted and checked for any further issues. 

The wheel is then balanced and fitted back on the car, a report is completed and payment taken.  Depending on the severity of the crack, a wheel can generally be welded 3 times, although there is no hard and fast rules covering this.
