I've got a hairline crack in my front left rim that's so deep the tire actually loses pressure through it. I need a repair centre that can fix this in the north. It's imperative that they do an excellent job.

Hopefully get it done in less than a day?

How was the service there?

service was good
my rim wasnt too bad, so they could repair it while I waited as they werent too busy
took about 2 hours if not less iirc

price was about 900 i think (might be for 2 cant remember now)
so check how much a new rim at ford cost
maybe give a couple of scrapyards a call...
 
Tiger Wheel and Tyre have a service where they send the rims away and get them repaired for you. It takes a little while, but it's not badly priced and I've been happy enough with the results.
