Alloy wheel repair

[longjohn1985]

Mine cost 100 but that was off a friend plus I did all the prep work. Think 50 a wheel is reasonable tho

depends on wheel size and severity of damage. I`ve just had 3 quotes for 20"s from £55-80 each and thats without any damage so 200 for all 4 sounds good.

This was how my rear wheel looked after my darling missus had a fight with a kerb.
I took it to my local Audi dealer for repair - wanted to be sure the colour was correct. When I picked it up it was nothing like the original colour. But they took it back and did it again with no questions asked. Edited to add cost was £100.
This was last summer - I put on my 17" winters and they have been on since, but the 19" wheels are going back on tomorrow.
Car is comfier with the 17" wheels, but does not look so good!

I paid 200 for 4 using a mobile service in Scotland called alloymaster who were superb. Paint rather than powder.

I can't get 17" wheels to fit over my callipers. Don't he a6s have different brakes on some or are your 17" a different offset

17" will fit over standard V6 diesel brakes fine.

my 17" are off an a5 - offset is 28 I think - but I am sure the standard 17" 45 offset will fit no problem.

I got mine painted the same colour as my car. Just make sure it's a good garage and not just someone who will tape up your tyres

Your car looks nice on those a5 wheels. Got a side shot? They look quite flush with the arches. What offset are they or do you have spacers?

I'm not sure of the offset but there is no spacers. Just standard a5 wheels. I'll put another pic up now
