How It Works
Auto rim repair service is a specialized automotive service that focuses on the maintenance, repair, and restoration of vehicle rims or wheels. This service may be needed due to cosmetic or functional damage to the wheels caused by potholes, curb damage, accidents, or just normal wear and tear. Here’s an overview of what you can expect:
Assessment
The repair process typically starts with a thorough inspection of the damaged rim. This is to identify the type of damage and assess whether a repair is possible. Some extreme forms of damage may necessitate a rim replacement.
Repair
Once the extent of the damage is known, the technician will begin the repair process. This can involve several techniques, including welding, heating, and reshaping the rim to correct dents, bends, or cracks. For alloy rims, a process known as CNC machining may be used.
Finishing
After the repair work, the rims often undergo a refinishing process to restore their appearance. This might include sanding, polishing, or repainting to match the original color.
Balancing
After the rim has been repaired and refinished, it’s crucial to balance the wheel. This process ensures the weight of the wheel is evenly distributed, which provides a smoother ride and minimizes strain on the vehicle’s suspension system.
Installation
The final step is reinstalling the repaired rim onto the vehicle and ensuring it’s secure.
