Straightening Rims

Post by ST Man »

I send them in through a local garage (that does give good service and helps me alot) but their rim repair guy cant fit the wheels on their machines due to bolt spacing

Just a thought, but you could possibly knock up an adapter of sorts, something like this:

A local engineering shop should be able to make such a thing.

I've never had car rims straightened before so I can't really recommend anyone, although Vaal Piet's always springs to mind.
Hope you come right.
