We love alloys – we’d be foolish to work here if we didn’t! – but we also know how intensely frustrating it is to discover a buckle in what once was a pristine alloy. Buckles can be caused by a variety of everyday driving problems, from hitting a pothole to simply bumping the side of a kerb.
Not only will the buckle ruin the look of your alloy, but it will also cause serious problems to your ride and handling. These problems include:
- Wear and tear on the car’s suspension
- Uneven tyre wear and frequent flat tyres
- Steering wheel shake or severe vibration
Rather than replace your alloy at a significant cost, why not bring it to our experts for repair? This is much cheaper than replacing the alloy and also ensures that the alloy can be returned to the exact shade and state as the other three – guaranteeing you a polished finished look for your car.
In our picture you can see our expert hard at work repairing a buckled alloy. The process is surprisingly quick and easy, but it’s the knowledge and skill that counts – restructuring the alloy can easily go wrong in inexpert hands!
To fix the alloy, our technicians simply heat it to a very high temperature and then reshape the alloy to its original form using precision instruments and a knowledgeable eye. As part of the service the alloy is then refitted and the car’s tyres rebalanced – giving you the best chance of a smooth and untroubled ride on the way home! The repair also comes with a 12 month warranty so you can be assured of the best possible service.
