Wheels are individually inspected by hand on arrival.
Wheels undergo a special non-corrosive chemical stripping process which removes all old paint and dirt.
Wheels are blasted to remove final layers of corrosion creating a finish ready for coating.
Wheels are welded and repaired where necessary.
*An extra charge is made for welding.
Wheels are computer lathe turned, taking the material to original manufacturers specification.
Wheels go through further treatment and preparation for turning by hand.
Wheels receive a chemical pre-treatment including "de-gassing" which expels moisture, protecting the wheel.
The entire wheel is coated with powder paint and is oven baked.
The wheel is put into the wet paint shop for colour finishing.
Wheels are diamond turned where necessary to achieve a precise and polished finished.
Once diamond turned they are chemically pre-treated and de-gassed once more.
Powder or wet lacquer is added to the whole wheel and it is oven baked once again. The wheel then has to pass a final quality control and inspection.
Once approved, wheels are protectively packaged and returned to Tyre-Smart. Once returned to us, we refit and balance your tyres to your alloys and place back on your vehicle.
