FCUK! ADVICE NEEDED
Was going across the redheugh bridge this afternoon going in to town, and what was in the road, big ****in brick. Tried and failed to avoid it since i didn't realise what it was until the last minute. My wheel now looks a bit sorry for itself to say the least:
https://tinypic.com/az8hzo.jpg Does anyone know if it's repairable, and if so where to get it done, cos I don't really want to have to fork out for a new wheel on top of the tyre since thats now a bit mangled. |
No expert but that looks like a new wheel jobbie to me.
Take it down to Revolution and ask if they can send it to SEM in Sun***land, they deal with alloy refurb but don't have any contact details. |
it does not look to bad, i would tape it up, hit it with a hammer to get it back in shape and get it on a wheel balanceing machine to see if its really out of true by a large amount
ive managed it before after hitting a pot hole :) |
mickey, hard to tell by your pic, but i'd be more worried by what looks like sidewall damage to your tyre!!
did you do that after you left our shop?? if you still intend dropping down this afternoon we'll check it out properly for you................ alyn |
Hi Alyn, it was a couple of hours after my visit yesterday, the side walls a bit messed up so it's gonna need a new tyre. Priced a new wheel, £110 :eek: Only paid £500 for the wheels and tyres.

Went to S.E.M in mackem land to see about getting my wheel fixed. Geezer said it can't be repaired. :cry: So now i've got to fork out £110 for a new wheel and about £100 for a new tyre. Bo11ox! All because some fcuking pikey can't be ar$ed to make sure the rubble on the back of their wagon is relatively secure. TW@TS :mad: :mad: :mad:
