Chrome Wheel Repair (and others) we do not do
We are a mobile alloy wheel repairer specialising in wheel repairs and refurbishment for private and business clients.
The Wheel Man provides a convenient and cost effective solution to wheel rim repair, wheel
refurbishment, and wheel reconditioning because we come to your home or business
and repair the damaged to the aluminium wheel on site.
However, there are some repairs that cannot be done as a mobile service. These
include buckled rims, cracked spokes or wheels, chrome wheels, motor cycle wheel repairs or steel wheel
repairs.
In the case of chrome wheels unfortunately there is no facility in Australia
to get a car wheel re-chromed. There are a few businesses that will re-chrome a
truck or bus wheel, but they do not re-chrome car wheels and rims.
Once you have damaged a chrome wheel, no matter what the damage is to the rim or
spoke of the chrome mag wheel, the wheel cannot be repaired, simply because the
car alloy wheel cannot be re-chromed. So, with car wheel repair for chrome
wheels, unfortunately, you have to either find a wheel replacement or second
hand wheel.
This is very frustrating for the car owner, because the damage on a chrome wheel
is very unsightly. Wheel repair in this case is not possible, because the wheel
cannot be re-chromed after the damaged has been removed.
Spoked wheels are difficult to repair as they have steel rims and therefore
cannot be repaired as a mobile service.
The Wheel Man does get asked to alter the wheel nut spacing or to drill out the
wheel nut, or even to alter the shape of the wheel nut mounting hole.
Unfortunately this requires a factory based engineering business and this type
of wheel reconditioning cannot be performed by a mobile wheel repairer.
