Hi Everyone,

Thought i would share with you my experience i had this last week, i tried to delete my first thread with great input from everyone and do a fresh one.

After driving to close the side of the road, the passengers side went off the road and bumped back onto it at around 50kph.

I drove around and checked some garages and found one in Al Quoz.

Its easily enough found, they have a machine that checks the shape of the wheels and hydraulically presses it back into shape.

I did have a averagely bad vibration after the incident but once 'Future Tyre Trading' carried out the repair everything is fine.

Took around an hour to remove all 4 wheels, repair 2 passenger side wheels and balance all 4.

Price was 400dhs per wheel repair and 150dhs for 4 wheels to be balanced.

Pictures and location below (The garage itself has massive 'Michelin" signage all over the front, you may have seen it before.
