No one has any more Advan RS' available and was wondering if this is repairable. Any advice/help is appreciated.

 

I've had pretty much similar damage on my stock EvoIX Enkei's and that was repaired without any problems in the local shop. I guess your rim can be repaired easily.

 

Thanks! I contacted a few shops to see if it was.. We'll see..

 

Yeah they can. Ive seen Volks in much worse shape than yours...They were repaired and looked new afterwards.

 

I know you are in Cali but there is a company I used in Miami called Turbax to fix wheels int he past and they do an excellent job. They would probably be able to fix that for you as well.

 

Ouch!

 

Took it to a few repair shops.. 2 said the lip was irrepairable. I currently have it at 1 shop. THe guy is going to try to fix it. Estimate was $250 with paint..

 

So after being denied by 2 wheel shops because "it was irrepairable", I took it to one last shop and they were up for the challenge. These guys did an outstanding job. If you're in the SoCal area and need a rim repair job you should hit this place up. PM me for contact info, not sure if I can post it publicly..

 

Wow, nice job!

 

He had to weld some more material on there because it was missing a lot. Overall though I couldn't be happier. From the labor to the paint matching. I compared it to the others and the only thing you can tell is that the decal is missing.

 

2 questions though...

Advan RS sold out?

And would the wheel structurally stand up to any hard driving like Auto x or potholes etc?

 

damn! i saw those rims i think for sale on the subaru forums for a great deal . really nice job on the repair!

 

why wouldnt it be? The weld is stronger than the wheel and as long as the repair didnt take out material without filling it back in, it should be perfect.

 

Wow the shop did a great job, nice job on the save.

 

impressive - nice job!
