Do they do the repairs on site?
How long do wheel repairs normally take? Wheels are curbed pretty deep (damn mum cant park)

I assume, they give you 2 spare wheels to drive around on yea?

nah, they do wheel repairs every tuesday i believe.
you give them a bare wheel with no tire.

All they do is the actual repair, but they do it damn well.
I practically destroyed one of my 17's and they repaired it.
had a gash about 4 inches long and quite deep.

looked brand new when i got it back

How hard is it to find a wheel in same stud pattern as the allroad?
What is the stud pattern for these anyway?
