Audi Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists
Audi wheels are known for their precision German engineering, combining performance with bold, modern styling. Common Audi designs include twin-five-spokes, rotor-style wheels, Y-spokes, honeycomb RS designs, diamond-cut bi-tone finishes, and lightweight forged wheels found on RS models. These wheels are engineered for strength and beauty, but the sharp spoke edges, diamond-cut faces and open designs also make damage easy to see.
At Alloy Wheel Repair, we specialise in restoring all Audi, S-Line and RS wheels to their genuine factory appearance — from standard models through to high-performance RS3, RS4, RS6, RSQ8 and R8 wheels. Our OEM-matched colours and CNC machining deliver perfect results every time.

- RS-Grade Refinishing - RS wheels are larger, wider and more complex — our processes preserve their structural and aesthetic precision.
- Fast, High-Quality Repairs - Ideal for daily drivers, prestige models and high-performance vehicles.
- Lifetime Warranty on All Painted Finishes - Long-term confidence in NZ’s varied road and weather conditions.
Common Audi Wheel Damage
- Kerb Rash on Rotor & Twin-Spoke Designs - The large, flat spokes highlight even minor scrapes.
- Diamond-Cut Corrosion (“white worm”) - Frequent on S-Line and RS wheels, especially in bi-tone finishes.
- Stone Chips & Paint Flaking - Particularly visible on gloss black and dark grey wheels.
- Bent Rims from NZ Roads - Low-profile tyres on Audi S and RS models make them prone to buckles.
- Cracks on High-Load or Wide RS Wheels - Heavy vehicles and performance driving can stress lightweight alloys.

Technical (for enthusiasts)
Audi wheels present a range of advanced engineering challenges:
- Bi-Tone Diamond Cut Finishes - RS wheels often combine dark inner paint with a fine CNC-cut face — masking and machining must be highly accurate.
- Forged RS and R8 Wheels - Require controlled straightening and minimal heat exposure.
- Complex Spoke Geometry (RS Honeycomb, Y-Spoke) - Demands meticulous sanding, blasting and paint control to avoid build-up.
- Large-Format Wheels (20–22") - High load capacity means straightening and crack repairs must meet strict tolerances.
- Audi-Specific Metallic Paint Systems - Many use multi-layer metallics or tinted clears that require advanced colour-matching.
Our workshop processes ensure structural safety, perfect balance, and a flawless OEM appearance.
