I booked in for full refurb of 4 wheels, welding an alloy and powder coating. I forgot my appointment and turned up late! They were great, honestly I am so glad I know they are there and I might see what other services I can use. Highly recommend

I have found Kyle and his Team to be very professional in all they do. Their wheel refurbishment service is unparalleled...better than Factory! The car detailing work completed for me is, again, exceptional. Really glad I found these guys.

Really professional service. Worked on my calipers. Removing old paint and starting afresh and a really professional job. Aside from the quality of work, what set them apart was going the extra mile to keep me updated at every stage. Wish I’d found them earlier.

The guys at vantom are fantastic. This is the second time I’ve used them. The first was to refurb the Mercedes wheels. The second time was to repair the cracks on the Audi wheel. I can definitely recommend vantom.

I recently had four wheels refurbished by Vantom and I couldn’t be happier with the result. The wheels had been damaged by a tyre fitting company and needed to be completely refurbished. Vantom did an excellent job. The finish is absolutely spot on and the wheels look fantastic. The quality of the workmanship is immediately obvious and they look as good as new. They also dealt with the job professionally and efficiently, which was particularly appreciated given the circumstances. I’m very particular about the appearance of my car and the wheels are an important part of its overall look. Vantom delivered exactly the finish I wanted and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

I was initially surprised when their website showed they managed comms through WhatsApp but I was impressed from start to finish with comms, replied within minutes every time and kept me updated throughout. Vantom carried out a professional assessment of the wheel prior to work starting and showed me on the balancing machine that the wheel was not only cracked but buckled as well. They then repaired and completed the work within 1 hour. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. Very professional guys and good value for money.

Excellently efficient, courteous and rapid mservice

Every alloy wheel we refurbish goes through the same nine steps at our Congleton workshop, all in-house, with next-day turnaround as standard. We don't paint over old finishes or send work away. The wheel is stripped to bare metal, repaired, blasted, powder coated and cured here, then balanced and refitted to your car.

The photos below are from real customer jobs, not stock images. If you'd like to see it for yourself, you're welcome to look round when you drop your car off.

The nine steps

Step 1: wheel removed from the car at Vantom, Congleton

1. Wheels off

We take the wheels off your car ourselves. You don't need to bring loose wheels or arrange a tyre fitter.

Step 2: tyre removed from the alloy wheel at Vantom, Congleton

2. Tyres off

Every tyre comes off so the whole wheel, inside and out, can be stripped and coated. Nothing is masked around rubber.

Step 3: damaged alloy wheel rim edge being assessed at Vantom, Congleton

3. Inspect and measure

We check the barrel and rim for buckles, cracks and corrosion, and spin the wheel to measure run-out. Anything structural is quoted before we start, never hidden under paint.

Step 4: alloy wheel chemically stripped to bare metal at Vantom, Congleton

4. Strip to bare metal

The wheel is chemically stripped back to bare aluminium, removing old paint, lacquer and corrosion completely so the new finish bonds properly.

Step 5: alloy wheel repair at Vantom, Congleton

5. Repair

Kerb damage is reshaped, deep gouges are face welded, buckles are straightened and cracks are TIG welded now, before any coating goes on.

Step 6: alloy wheel being sandblasted at Vantom, Congleton

6. Sandblast

Blasting cleans the bare metal and gives the primer a surface to key into.

Step 7: alloy wheel in primer powder coat at Vantom, Congleton

7. Powder coat and cure

Primer, colour and lacquer are applied as powder and oven cured, one coat at a time, for a hard, even, chip-resistant finish. See our colours and finishes.

Step 8: alloy wheel face diamond cut on the CNC lathe at Vantom, Congleton

8. Diamond cut if chosen

For diamond cut wheels, the face is machined on our own CNC lathe to a bright finish, then lacquered.

Step 9: refurbished diamond cut alloy wheel refitted to the car at Vantom, Congleton

9. Refit and balance

Tyres go back on, every wheel is balanced and refitted to your car, ready to drive away.

How long does it take?

Next-day turnaround is standard for refurbishments. Crack and buckle repairs are walk-in, Monday to Friday 10am to 5:30pm, and are often done while you wait.

What it costs

Powder coated refurbishment is £90 per wheel or £360 for four, and diamond cut is £144 per wheel or £576 for four, any size up to 23", including VAT, tyre removal, refitting and balancing. Every price is on our prices page.

Process questions

Do you paint over the old finish?

No. Every wheel is stripped to bare metal and blasted first. Coating over old paint is why cheap refurbs peel within months.

Do I need to take the wheels off the car?

No. Bring the car to our Congleton workshop and we do everything, from wheels off to wheels back on and balanced.

Is any of the work sent away?

No. Stripping, welding, straightening, blasting, powder coating, curing and diamond cutting are all done in-house at Unit 3 Royle Park, Congleton.

What if a wheel isn't safe to repair?

We tell you at the inspection stage and advise a replacement. We'd rather lose the job than hand back a wheel we wouldn't drive on ourselves.
