Depends on how far out of East Midlands you want to go, can recommend AP Tyres - Rotherham or Metal Magic - Barnsley

Rimfurbish in West Bromwich were brilliant when I used them.
A huge outfit, but some time ago they started being late with return times. Maybe they are back on track now?
There is no doubting the quality of their work though - Fantastic. LINK.

Who can repair this.

Ouch!

www.alloywheelrepairs.com can, but they are beyond York. Ian Jemison is the owner and he works for the WRC teams so knows what he is doing. That impact looks quite bad, so they may crack (can be welded) durng the repair process...

life's worth more than a wheel with a ding - I wouldn't do more than get me home at low speed on that - and quite slowly too. And I'm an oldie, however I don't intend to go without a fight or being helped on my way by a knackered rim

I did not think it was that bad, local people i have sent photos too can not fix it, i have seen a lot worse damaged wheels on the net which have been repaired.

Another member on here Davidbilyk is using these guys in Nottingham in the next few days for an alloy wheel colour change;

Alloy wheel refurbishment and repair - Quality refurbished wheels

I've not used them myself but their reviews are good.

As has already been mentioned then Metal Magic in Barnsley are very good, I have used them on three different sets of wheels and always was impressed.

I'd give them a go, it is probably a harder repair due to it being where the valve is so less metal to work with.

Well the wheels were on the van when i brought it , they are 19 inch brabus wheels with 255/35/19 tyres . The tyres stick over the rim about 10 - 15 mm but i could do with new tyres and i am not bothered about fitting wide tyres or low profile tyres .
Getting some feed back on another post that the wheels might not be right or man enough for the van and that i need a rating of 102 what ever that means. I am only using the van has light 4 seated day van when finished can anyone advice please, has don't won't to send money on them if they are wrong. have brought some arch extensions so no rubber is showing past the body.

my tyres are rated 97 and i need 102 rated tyres i have been told. My local tyre place have told me they only do 4x4 tyres rated that high for 19inch wheels, and they are rated 107.would 4x4 tyres be ok to use.Thanks
