When a wheel is worth repairing

Most scuffs, kerb marks, corrosion and bends can be repaired, and a repaired original keeps all four wheels matched. Send a photo and we'll tell you whether yours falls into that group. Some damage goes too far. If a crack or bend makes a wheel unsafe to repair, the quote says so, and we say so again if a closer look reveals more. Where repair is possible you know the price before you commit.

Questions about the work on your Audi A3

Does my A3 leave the workshop for any part of the repair?

No. Stripping, welding, the lathe, the powder coating oven and the painting all happen at Crown Road, so one team answers for the job from the first photo to the final check.

What does the CNC lathe do on a diamond cut A3 wheel?

On a diamond cut wheel, the lathe cuts a fresh bright face once the damaged surface is dealt with, and new lacquer seals it. That job takes 2 working days.

Can you straighten an A3 wheel bent by a pothole?

Yes, bends are straightened and cracks welded in-house. Send a photo and we'll say whether the wheel is safe to repair before you book.
