Alloy Wheel Repair & Refurbishment for Cardiff Drivers
South Wales Alloys is Newport's premier alloy wheel specialist — just a straight run down the M4 from Cardiff. Professional refurbishment, diamond cutting, powder coating and bodywork at workshop prices, not mobile markup.
Why Cardiff Drivers Choose South Wales Alloys
If you're in Cardiff, Canton, Cathays, Roath, Whitchurch, Llanishen or anywhere in the CF postcode area, we're closer than you think. Our Newport workshop at 1-2 Coomassie Street is just off the M4 at Junction 26 — roughly 20 minutes from Cardiff city centre and under 15 minutes from the eastern suburbs like St Mellons, Rumney and Llanrumney.
Cardiff's roads take a toll on alloy wheels. The A48 Eastern Avenue, Newport Road and the city centre's tighter streets around St Mary Street and Queen Street are pothole hotspots, and navigating multi-storey car parks in St David's and Capitol Centre means kerb rash is almost inevitable. We see Cardiff customers every week with exactly these kinds of damage.
Unlike mobile repair services that operate from the back of a van, we run a fully equipped in-house workshop with professional spray booths, CNC diamond-cut lathes, hydraulic straightening equipment and powder coating ovens. That means a factory-quality finish that a mobile service simply can't match — and our prices are typically lower because we don't carry the overheads of travelling to you.
What Makes Us Different
Many Cardiff drivers initially look for alloy wheel repair in Cardiff itself, but quickly discover that most local options are either mobile-only operations or general garages that offer wheel repair as a sideline. South Wales Alloys is a dedicated alloy wheel and bodywork specialist — it's all we do, and we've invested in the equipment to do it properly.
Every wheel that comes through our workshop gets the same treatment: strip the tyre, inspect for structural damage, repair any cracks or bends, sand and prepare the surface, then refinish to your specification — whether that's a colour match to your original finish, a custom colour, diamond cut, or full powder coat. We include free tyre removal and rebalancing as standard with every refurbishment.
We serve drivers from across Cardiff including Pontcanna, Riverside, Grangetown, Splott, Adamsdown, Penylan, Cyncoed, Heath, Birchgrove, Thornhill, Radyr, Llandaff, Ely, Caerau, Fairwater, Pentwyn and all surrounding areas. Whether you're a private driver, run a fleet, or manage a dealership, we can help.
