Wheel safety and wheel welding at CCM

A cracked alloy wheel rim is generally only identified as the wheel rim starts to leak air, and tyre pressure is affected.

Now, many people ask “is it safe?”. Well we say YES!

The welding process used creates a seal and restores strength to the rim where the crack existed. In our experience these welds last a very long time, and generally are only broken following impact with a pot hole or kerb. The wheels don’t explode or do any weird and wonderful things that the uneducated may try to purvey. Put simply, if we did not believe in our ability to weld wheel rims safely, we would not supply this service. At CCM we value our customers and would like them to come back. The proof is in the pudding really as we repair 100s of wheels each month!

Some wheels that are presented to us have been welded many times before in other locations. Our staff will closely inspect these wheels and will mark welds not conducted by us. Some wheels however are simply too far gone unfortunately. We are often presented with Jaguar wheels that have as many as 8 or 9 previous welds and we will usually decline these wheels as they are becoming so out of shape that a repair would be a waste of our time as well as the owners.
