Wheel Straightening Process
 

What we do... This is a wheel, badly bent. Sorry, I won't fix this. This wheel could probably be made straight(er) but never made safe. However...

Wheel (30K) Most bent rims are not that bad and are safely repairable. I only charge if I can fix the wheel.

  With proper application of hydraulics and specially designed tools; dents, curb kisses, radial and lateral runouts can be corrected.

I guarantee tolerances better than .010" in any direction.

As the wheel gets better, my eyes get worse. That's why it will cost $120.00 per hour. Typically, the cost is $100 -$140 (if no welding or machining is required).

Aluminum and Magnesium wheels corrected. All repairs are subject to my discretion, not all damage is safely repairable. If I can't fix your wheel, you don't pay for the attempt (does not apply to any shipping costs).
