Wheel refurbs - Chri5 - 10-02-2021

I am after somebody who can refurb some wheels that are quite bad.
I have pictures I can show.
I've not bought these yet. But I'm hoping somebody can say that these can be fixed.
Thanx in advance

When you say quite bad, are we talking buckled/cracked or just kerb rash??


Wheel refurbs - Chri5 - 10-02-2021

I'll let the pix do the talking mate.
Seems to be more kerb damage.
Looks like a slight kerb on 1 of the pix.

Hopefully they'll be fixable Wink

Yeah, I'd say that was repairable, doesn't look too bad at all. I was looking at a set of 18" aero rims not long ago, they had aparantly hit a pothole, but got advised by several people to avoid, as the damage was too severe to be repaired, will get a pic up in a few mins

Two of the set of four were like that.

And we're they repaired???

No idea, didn't buy them in the end.

Repairable, not a problem - for a decent place.
The question would be is it cheaper just to buy a set that don't need the extra work doing.


Wheel refurbs - Chri5 - 10-02-2021

Yes it would probably be cheaper.
But on the other side at least I will have a mint set of wheels.

Looking at the front that looks like standard curbing and corrosion. Depending on where you get it done 250 - 350. But the bulges in the back is more specialist repairing rather than surface refurbs. I would've give them a miss, but if you didn't see that they were like that before you bought them then i can understand that you just wan to get them fixed.
