Rim Straightening Chicago. Bent Rim Repair. Chicago Bent Wheel Repair.
Rim Straightening: $130
This price includes straightening all bends on the rim so that the wheel runs true and holds air. Also, the price includes the cost of mounting, dismounting, and balancing the rim after we straighten it.
There are a few main reasons to have a rim straightened. The first is that you may feel vibrations in your steering wheel when driving especially at faster speeds. The second reason for straightening is your rim may not be holding air. Finally, even small bends in your wheel will wear out your tire much faster.
We use three hydraulic machines in our process to straighten bent wheels. The first machine is used to take out large bends and bring the wheel within .015 in. of round. The second machine is used to tweak the rim back to perfect round. A third machine removes lateral bends and bends to the face of the wheel. We guarantee that the wheel will be round, holds air when remounted to the tire, and will be properly balanced.
We try to make this as convenient as possible for you. You may leave your car with us, drop off the loose rim, or we can put your spare on for you at no charge. We will also mount the straightened wheels back on your car when you come to pick up your repaired rims at no additional charge.
The process takes about 24 hours. We can offer same day delivery if you make an appointment with us and drop off the rims before 10am.
Rim Straightening and Refinishing: $160
If your rim has curb damage we can repair and refinish the wheel for only an extra $30 when combining the two services.
Please note: if your rim is bent on the front (the face) then the painted finish on your rim will (most likely) burn or melt off at the location of the bend. While this will not affect the performance of your rim or wheel it will tarnish the appearance and we would recommend having your rim repaired and refinished so it will look new.
