What filler is good for repairing alloys? Normal body filler or is there any better filler out there?

Repairing in what way? Just scuffs on the outer rim etc Id rather use chemical metal etc as Im sure normal body filler would come of when fitting news tyres etc. if your trying to cover crack i'd rather have them welded personally then smoothed and filled

 

i repaired my wheels with normal filler and have had no problems and they have been done for around 4 years now , i done some light scrapes round the edge and the tyres went on no problem 215/40/17 only time they got scraped was with some chimp that did not have a clue when fitting tyres
going to be giving mines a colour change soon

also as above the metal filler is the right way i would think , but i have had no problems so up to you mate

 

I used some stuff from halfords called metalik, it's a metal filler, worked a treat!

 

i'd go with chemical metal, holds much nicer than regular body filler.
