Alloy, aluminum wheel repair and refinishing

At Metro Wheels, we've teamed up with the most knowledgeable engineers to develop a state-of-the-art wheel repair facility in which to bring alloy wheels (motorcycle wheel repair, too) back to factory tolerances. We can also refinish your dull or peeling alloy wheels and make them shine like new again.

Metro Wheels is based just north of Atlanta and services customers from all over the country. We offer shipping options to customers unable to bring their wheel/rim to us. See our packages and shipping options below or contact us about a damaged wheel.

Note: We do not repair steel wheels, but recommend replacing them, since that is more cost-efficient.

Precision Results:

Before - The Damaged Wheel

 

Collision damage or wear and tear from years of driving can make the alloy wheel look dull and shabby.

After - The Repaired Wheel

After the surface imperfections have been skillfully repaired, we apply a smooth coating of clear coat to give the finished alloy wheel that "showroom new" appearance.
