Buckled Wheel :s

[Millsy]

is it possible to have a buckled wheel completely straightened so it is straight and true??

thanks guys

No idea, I guess it depends on how much its buckled they might be able to re-balance it to counter the off shape.

nah been to a tyre place and they said its buckled etc, i dont think its that bad as it doesnt cause any vibration etc through the car.

i have just found a place on the net in yorkshire that can restraighten buckled wheels so i may have to see if theres any where down here in the south that can do it.

does anyone know of anywhere in the south east?

If it doesn't cause vibration, why do you care?

 

[Millsy]

because the whole wheel is wobbling and i have been advised by the tyre place not drive it

c.slicker dont suppose with all your wheel sales you could source one could you?

 

[C.slicker]

The tyre place will always advise that sort of thing to cover their backs.

Put it on the back and it should be fine.
