Winter wheel repairable?

sahajesh · 10-29-2018, 11:37 AM

Any comments on whether the buckling could/should be repaired?

Yes, Pretty simple repair. Looks ok from those images although its not possible to see the inner part of the rim. That tyre is probably goosed through.

Thanks - the tyre looks OK and the only visible wheel damage is as pictured.

That looks like quite a bang, might be worth checking the tracking if you haven't already. Could you claim for repair? Roads are total shit at the moment.

It happened a while back tbh, just forgot to have the wheel looked at and now of course it needs doing when I want to fit the wheels again.
