Wheel Repair And Paint


Recommended Posts

Hi! I got some White CR Kai's that are getting out of control to clean.

Thinking of getting the painted professionally.

Only 1 rims got very minor gutter rash and the others just has paint chip near the wheel nut holes

Anyone know any good place on the westside near Keilor?

I got quoted at a panel beater $120 per rim, ( Take off/on tyre, Repaired, painted and balanced)

Is that a good price?

I was thinking of powder coating but i heard that if it starts to crack, its really cracks plus i have to get the tyre on and off plus they only paint not repair my rim too.

Any suggestions?

Bring it to Steve's Wheels in Berkshire Road in Sunshine. Ask for Zoran or Igore. Tell him Kevin with the R33 GTR sent you. They'll help you out. Great prices and service.

I went there today, they are alot dearer!

Charging close to $200 more than the panel beater.

Any other Powerdercoat places that repair rims?

Definitely go black rims...without the red stuff... just all black.

Really - and you said I sent you and they still gave you that price? Damn...

Try also Advanced Wheel Repairs in Richmond or Ajax wheels in the Eastern Suburbs. Give them a shot.

Good luck mate.

    • Hi I wanted to see if anyone knows the name of the OEM R32 rims because I can't find it anywhere
    • Gates is saying the same thing. They think I have the right bag with the wrong hose in it... I bought it off amazon, I'm thinking someone pulled a good old swapparoo and returned normal hose. Well looks like she's coming back out... Not very lucky with this hose lol. 
    • Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead
    • Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.
    • It shouldn't swell like that, (just looked it up) it should say SAE J30R10
