They are only in Hemel Hempstead, and they did a cracking job on my Astra GSi rims.

whatever mate, one of my rims is slightly bucked and it balanced out. the filler can be balanced out, after all you dont need too much plus all it is is chalk in a resin.

refurb my bros wheels, infact getting tyres put on today plus my dad did his about a year ago.

Don't think it'll fit in the spare wheel well. I think i'll take it down to my friendly local tyre fit place and ask the "just bung us a tenner" man his opinion

...could always make a nice spare... ;)

Ok cheers for the help. The wheel isn't cracked, just severly kurbed on the 2 spokes

Nah I had a misshap a few weeks ago and cracked my alloy but the tyre was ok and when I got it fixed the guy told me that I would have to put it on the back as it won't balance out. Thought he was talkin piss but the tyre fitters told me the same thing. hope this helps m8.

Why wouldn't you be able to balance it? Surely if a tyre fit place puts it on their machine they can balance it ?

You won't be able to balance it out but you can just put it on the back.

As some of you might know i recently had an accidient.

Now my front left wheel was a bit worse for wear, but it turns out after picking the bits of pavement out of the gap between tyre and rim :o that it isn't as bad as i first thought.

The bodyshop told me not to run the car on that wheel, but they would cos they want me to buy another wheel which is on back-order from Vauxhall :(

The front of the wheel on 2 spokes has been damaged (deep cuts) and along the edge of the rim is the same.

Also on the back of the rim where its caught the suspension its shaven off some of the metal from the inner rim.

I was wondering would i be able to get this rim refurbed? And if i do will the balancing be serverely affected due to the amount of filler used?

Thanks alot
