Alloy wheel repair in Tuzla
The workshop sits at 3. tuzlanske brigade 128 in Simin Han. Bring the wheel in, we look at it with you and tell you what is possible.
Why wheels take a beating in Tuzla
City driving is unforgiving. High kerbs around parking bays, sunken manhole covers and the raised edges left behind after roadworks all take their toll: one angled hit is enough to flatten a rim flange or knock the whole barrel out of true. Plenty of drivers only notice once the tyre starts losing air.
Here every wheel starts on the runout gauge. A buckled barrel goes onto the hydraulic press; where a piece of metal is missing or a crack has opened up, fresh material is welded in and the surplus is then ground back until the line of the edge returns. Alloy or steel, the sequence follows the damage.
Nothing leaves town. Straightening and welding both happen under one roof in Tuzla, so your wheel never goes on a trip of its own and you are not left waiting on transport. Diameters from small steel rims up to large low profile wheels are handled the same way.
Finding the workshop in Simin Han
The address is 3. tuzlanske brigade 128, 75000 Tuzla. From the city centre it is a short drive, which is why many drivers pull in on the way home from work, leave the wheel and collect it once it is finished. If you cannot spot the entrance, ring +387 61 570 429 and we will talk you in.
What we do for drivers in Tuzla
From a single flattened rim flange to a crack that lets the air out: the jobs asked for most often in town.
Welding and crack repair
Cracks, breaks, holes in the bead seat and missing chunks of metal. The area is welded through its full thickness and machined back to the wheel's original line.
More on thisStraightening buckled wheels
A wheel that hops, shakes the steering or has gone oval after a pothole is pressed back into a true circle in small stages, with the metal checked as it goes.
More on thisWhy leave the wheel with us
Everything under one roof
Press, welder and grinder stand in the same hall. No sending the rim on to a third tradesman and no driving between two addresses.
An honest assessment
If a wheel cannot be repaired safely, you hear it straight away, before any work begins. We would rather say no than let a questionable rim back onto the road.
Checked in rotation
After the repair the wheel spins on the machine and the remaining runout is measured. Only once the line sits quiet does the rim go back to you.
Common questions from Tuzla
Where can I get buckled alloy wheels repaired in Tuzla?
At Servis felgi Sloga, 3. tuzlanske brigade 128, in the Simin Han district. Bent alloy rims are pressed back into shape and then measured again to see how much runout is left. Call or message +387 61 570 429 before you drive over.
Can I drop a wheel off without calling first?
It is better to get in touch on +387 61 570 429 first, because visits are arranged rather than tied to fixed hours. A short call or message settles it: you describe the damage, we say when to come, and the rim does not sit in your boot for days.
Do you work on steel wheels or only alloys?
Both are handled here. Steel rims are straightened and welded, and because they dent rather than crack, the press is the main tool for them. Alloys end up at the welder more often. The material decides the method, not whether the job gets done.
My steering wheel vibrates, is the rim to blame?
Very often it is. When a barrel runs out sideways or up and down, the shake comes through the steering at higher speeds, and balance weights do not cure it because the fault is in the shape. Bring the wheel in for a measurement; if it runs out, it is straightened on the press.
How do I know whether my wheel can be repaired at all?
Send a photo of the damage by WhatsApp or Viber to +387 61 570 429 and you get an assessment. Kerbed flanges, bead seats and cracks in the barrel are usually solvable. If a load bearing part is damaged and a safe repair is not possible, we say so openly.
Drivers come from the towns around too
Wheels arrive here regularly from Lukavac, Živinice, Srebrenik, Gračanica and Banovići, and each of those routes has a page of its own.
