Can anyone recommend a place to repair rims?

Its got some nasty scratches and this pretty bad crack in one of the spokes,

I have a bad feeling that it has snapped in two

Was wondering if its still repairable

Its cast iron rim not forged if it makes a difference

Try Alliance Rim Repair. They used to be in Northbridge, but moved further north. They made my rims look like brand new. Probably best to take the rim down for a look & ask. Just don't be in a hurry to get it back, ie allow say three weeks as they are busy & have a bit of a production line thing happenning.

[Or feel free to come see me at Just magz at unit 1-63 brant rd kelmscott, we actually specialise in shadow chroming and mag wheel restoration, making rims and megs look brand new for a fraction of the cost compared to alliance rim repairs, for example, a bent rim that just needs straightening/painting would be around $90 flat etc.

Can you match the paint of a Gun Metal Grey P1 mate? I can email you a pic of the damage if you like. Just needs spraying.

Certainly can, anything minor on rims, like curb damage, minor scratches and a repsray are all the same price @ $50 each.

Antyhing bent, or that needs welding, repolishing and a respray including colour changes dont usually go over 120$ each.

The only thing we dont do is chrome dipping, rims like that have to be sent out and alot of the prices vary as they are priced by the weight when they come out etc

No worries ill come see you during the week.

Whats the turn around time for a job like that? and does the $50 include removing the tyre from the rim?

60 to remove/refit and balance or 50 if ya bring it to me stripped, either way would really cost the same whether ya did it urself or not

I think the rule is that if the spoke is cracked it pretty much a write off but it can be done without an guarentees.

My AVS rim was totally mauled after teh crashzor incident and alliance repaired it just fine with no guarentees of course. Still the balance was ll good no problems with it. They even found the right paint.
