I just noticed that the half of my polished lip has gone through some curbage action. I don't even know where it came from. My Dad uses the car too so he could've done it, i haven't asked him yet. I could've done it too, but the weird thing I don't remember.

So I was wondering if there is any rim repair shops around the suburbs, city, wherever? It's so freakin depressing to look at.

Wheels America is where I took mine. 888-4 fix rim is the number. Not to far. near Algonquin Rd.

 

finally someone who actually responded 2 this thread. my-lancer, thanks for da valuable info

 

No prob. I figured since mine were jacked I could help someone else.

 

I know it's been a while since I posted but thanks for the recommendation my-lancer.
I took them to Wheels America.

They charged me $99 per rim + $18 mount/balance back on the tire

So total for two rims is $234. I think this was a good deal. Don't u guys think? Well anyways, I'm picking them up tomorrow and I'll see the results of what I paid for. I'll remember next time not to F them up anymore.

 

I had my curb rash fixed and my rims powder-coated at WheelTech here in Omaha. I'm picking them up this afternoon. His prices are awesome.

 

so let's compare prices here for the people on evom to see. How many rims u had done, how bad was the damage, and awesome were the prices?

just to compare with mine...i wanna know if i got a good deal or jipped off.

 

I believe rim repair, media-blasting, and powder-coating worked out to about $75 a rim. I'm just about to go pick them up.

 

so basically i got ripped off? ...did u have to pay for balancing the tires back on?

 

My car is on jacks getting work done to it, so I was able to just gave him the rims. I'll probably get the tires mounted and balanced later this week.

 

I think you got a price for there work they do. Do you happen to see all the Mercedes rims they work on. I thought they were new. But you're welcome. Also, you probably would have to pay for shipping which be a pretty penny.

 

I didn't see any new finished rims...i only saw broken *** old ones in the back.

yeh I thought a good deal...he actually knocked off $40 a rim and $2 off the mounting and balancing. He's a real straight guy...anyone who need rims to be fixed ask for Ramone.

 

just wanted to resurrect an old thread - any good spots around chi / nw Indiana that would provide this service? if so, can you comment on price, service as well as how well they did it? this is for an mr rim, btw

thx

 

hey all, wondering if anyone knows where to have rims fixed in Minnesota?
