Slightly buckled wheel
Discussion
Hi all
Looking for a bit of advice. I own an audi s6 avant (full fat v8 turbo version) running 20" wheels.
At the mot I had two advisories both relating to the same wheel. Firstly low tyre tread, on closer inspection they are all getting low and being quattro will need changing together. Secondly a slightly buckled wheel, I have stuck my head under the car with a torch a few times and also moved the car backwards and forwards and can't see anything obvious. The mot centre said the tyre place down the road could knock/tap it out. I have used the tyre place a couple of times for the missus horseboxes and they have been really helpful.
Just wondering if it's safe to have them tap the buckle out?
Am I best to get the tyres changed first or the buckle sorted as the wheel will need balancing after. I will give them chance to quote for the tyres but not sure how competitive they will be as I'm looking at michelin cross climate 3 sports or goodyear asymmetric 5's.
