Our trained technicians have the equipment and the know-how to make your bent rims a thing of the past.
TIG WELDING
Hitting a pothole may not only bend your rim, but also may cause a hairline cracks which causes your rim to leak air. Although usually cracks are on the inside of the rim, sometimes the impact is so hard that an entire chunk of the face is broken off! Using TIG welding combined with our trained welders, digitized machining, we can restore your rims and repair them for a fraction of the price of buying a new one.
