Tyre Rim Damage


Recommended Posts

I suffered a dent on the steel rim, I rolled the car forward so the dent was at its lowest point, then I used a short piece of steel bar (ie, a drift) about an inch thick, and using a lump hammer struck the bar (rim) hard a few times and it straightened out fairly well. The edge of the bar might have to be filed so it doesn't catch the tyre.

I've got the spare on for now.  The dinted wheel is in the boot.  Amazingly enough, the tyre is still in tact!  I've got it booked in Tuesday morning to sort it, if I don't choose to go the DIY route like many have suggested (not just on here!).

 

It was somewhere near Staveley.  Not in our wonderful city 😄

 

Thanks for all the help and advice, folks!

 

O'k. Glad you got it sorted and very good news about the tyre.  Can't think of the last time I went near Staveley.
