Maybe have your wheel guy stop by the BBQ on the 10th, I am sure he could drum up quite a bit of business.

the actual name of the place is Rite-Way Wire & Wheel Specialists in Walnut Creek, CA. Call them and just ship it, easier than buying new one.

^Riiiight...I'll get on that...

So much for reasonable prices, after I include the cost of shipping a wheel to CA!

Wheel factory in edmonds same plaza as pochi on 224th. They fixed all 4 of my s2000 wheels, laser cutting and fixing bent wheels, they also fix all road rash, the can powdercoat too, they also have many stock sport car wheels there as well, they do alignments and subframe pulling, I went through all that with my s2k. Great place and fairly cheap for the level of quality of work produced.

If they're doing anything laser related I'm guessing it is precise measuring/aligning, etc. A laser that will cut metal is expensive and huge. I could interest you in one that can pop a balloon or light a cigarette, though.

I don't know their operation though, so I can't comment on what they do or don't have.
