Many wheel repair businesses try to fix aluminum alloy wheels using steel wheel technology.  This doesn’t work and usually causes even worse damage to the wheel.  They also assume aluminum wheels can simply be “hammered” or “pounded” out.  Neither is true.

Rims get bent every day by impacts, usually caused by potholes or curbs.  We use our own proprietary technology, which uses heat, hydraulic pressure, customized tools and metallurgical skill to straighten aluminum alloy wheels to factory specifications.  Our process is both an art and a science.

Although several different techniques now exist for straightening alloy wheels, our proprietary process is superior in several ways; methods that do not use heat, technology, typically leave the affected area weaker than before, while our technology has a metallurgical effect on the alloy that is similar to forging steel, strengthening the affected area slightly.  

Our technology allows us to straighten wheels up to 22” in diameter of all types and styles.  We can often straighten difficult bends that other straightening technologies cannot.  We straighten all types of auto wheels, including factory wheels and aftermarket wheels.

It is almost always easier to bend a wheel on the inside because there are no spokes to support the wheel edge.  This can make the bend difficult to find without removing the wheel  from the  car and checking the inside.
