Whitesupraboy2 Posted March 7, 2006 Author Share Posted March 7, 2006 can you repair a buckled wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 In a word no, you can never restore the trueness of the wheel and you cannot heat up the wheel as they are tempered. What sort of wheels are they? Can we do a search for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian W Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 are they standard wheels mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted March 7, 2006 Author Share Posted March 7, 2006 no i had 17" standard wheels on which i was gonna get rid of, as i bought these aftermarket alloys (momo 17" something) to replace them. But guess i wont be selling foir now just incase. Im gonna hunt down a new set of aftermarket alloys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 try Paul Whiffin if you're a bit strapped for cash as the Ultralite and Compomotive alloys are excellent value for money imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
