hi friends...jz wanna ask u all how much it's cost to repair a tyre which is leaking dy n d rim is bend dy...coz i hit into a hole during driving ...so unlucky...the rim still can use/repair ma?thanks 4 ur information...

ur rims is how many inch?

last time i did mine 16' is RM60 per rims.

will it really recover bend rims?
will the bend come back after a while??
Need some advice...
Thanks

my rim dented badly till they need 1 day to repair... minor damage can be done easily one.. for mine 15'' it was RM55..

if tyre leaks wit ha hole, it will cost only RM5 to plug the hole at tyre shop.

RM55 for each???

they will heat the rim up to knock the rim back to shape......

the bend will come back if you hit pot holes lah......so if normal driving on good surface road ok one......if hit pot holes a lot of times.....no need to say the repaired rim.......other never-repair-before rim will also be dented ma......



price to repair depends on rim size.....last time 14 inch costs about rm40....15inch costs about rm 50-60 depending on shop......

also, repair leaking tyres can be done provided the tyres are leaking on the surface that touches the road. if on the side of the tyres, very unlikely to be repaired unless the hole very small.

price is usually rm5 per leak. more if the leak is bigger. but if the leak is very big, then non-repairable.

hope this helps......

depend on bend & rim condition. last time i repair my 16" rim, RM30-35/rim

mine was RM90 per rim. Done at sg besi workshop.

wah....16inch and it rm90.....

how bad was your rim bent? front or back? meaning when you drive your car got vibrate?

is the bent rim from japan?

i heard made in japan rim are tougher than the ones made locally or from Taiwan.

left front and left rear rims are so badly bent ! Yeap, its vibrate
Anyway, maybe next february can change to new set of rims.

wah....vibrate.....i also got experience on this once.....my 14inch rims on my old iswara......cost rm40 per rim.....

when i drive at 80kmh.....wah the car vibrate like going to break apart .........even after balancing and alignment.....

anyway hope you get nice rims ya.... .........i am hunting for 15inch set also....might go to a shop in klang that is importer of second hand japan rims....i have no money to buy new ones

Bent so badly no point repairing, even a professional rims shop, they can't repair back to 100% alike. Trade in value should be low, i think around RM200 - RM250.

Of course its not like 100%. But no choice, that time I was so broke because of festive season.

I found that proton's stock allow rims are quite durable.. during my industrial training at prai industrial zone penang. almost 3 times a week i will drove over a pot hole for a duration of 3 months.. and 6 times during the same period driving over the drain hole.. (remember the time when metal price suddenly shoot up.. those brainless fella steal the drain cover away.)

Because of these bad condition roads, i have to change my rear absorber and the rubber mounting for the front wheels(left side torn) after the training period over. Surprizingly the rims are ok.

last time i bought an old old enkei
which hv 1 pcs hv dent and scratch and bend

pass to my cousin who own a tayar shop
mend all 4 rims + repair the one which bended + respray metallic paint = RM230

then i got myself a brand new enkei!
hehehehe

oh ya..my rim is only 14"..

i did RM 50 each alloy rim dent repair at Weng Cheing workshop.
