AMG 21" I hit a pothole, The Rim was handed in for repair. Be careful when collecting. While you settle your bill the staff removes the spare and mounts the "repaired" rim. From there I went to fit new tyres Supplier showed me the rim is not true. I take" it back for 2 reasons 1 the rim is not fixed and there is over-spray on the black rim of a white color. I go back to Centurion Mag Repair they offer to fix both. 2 Days later I collect the rim. I stopped the staff from mounting the rim and requested the wheel to be put on the balance machine. The lady from the shop instructs me to leave the work area, I ask her how should I see if the rim is true from the outside of the work area. I stay and the rim is still not correct I put my finger on the bead lip and it bounces on the defect. She accuses me of moving my finger and calls the manager, I show him the same, and he tests the rim and yes it is still not true. He responds "This is the best I can do" and walks away. I left and took it to Reliable Mag Repair Centre Midrand 2 technissions indicate the rim is not true and that the inside bead lip has been cut so much it is below the save margin. [bead lip is the lip that holds the tyre on the rim] They can not repair the rim I need to replace it.
Mercedes Qute R 32k for 1 rim.
