WHY CHOOSE CCM

Repairing an alloy wheel rim is not just something anyone can do. It is a specialist task that should only be completed by competent professionals, using the correct processes.

New alloy wheel rims typically range from £300 upwards to the highest we have seen to date being £2,134 on a Porsche Cayenne, that means that a welding repair is great value for money when compared to buying a new wheel rim.

If you are unsure about the condition of your wheel then pop in (please call first) and we will look at your wheel for free and duly supply you with a repair quote.

At CCM we have invested some £15,000 in our latest TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding plant. Some customers have been offered welding repairs using MIG process and alloy wire, please believe us when we say that MIG welding on alloy wheel rims simply will not give you a proper repair.

POPULAR QUESTIONS

• Is the repair safe?

  Yes, we have welded literally thousands of wheels and are happy that our work practices and methods are appropriate for a crack repair. Let’s be clear though a welded wheel will never be as strong as the original. If you are seriously concerned about the potential of a welded wheel failing then sadly you just “gotta dig deep” and buy a new wheel rim.

• I have been told that it’s illegal to have a wheel rim welded, is this true?

  Nope, not true, a professional weld is a proper repair.

• Can you repair my wheel today?

  Yes, if you call and book a time we can usually squeeze in a few extra jobs each day. We will certainly try our best to help you if we can.
