Wheel repair shop

Does anyone know of a good wheel repair shop around San francisco bay area (preferably south bay - around palo alto)? I've a slight curb rash, and I was wondering how much would it approximately cost to fix it? I got quoted $650 for reconditioning all 4 wheels or 185 for just 1. Does that sound reasonable? BTW they're the standard 17 5 spoke alloy AMG that originally came with the C32.

Any help will be appreciated.

I just got my rim (1) back from Wheels Technique last Friday.
$145.00 for dent repair and curb rash refinish only and no paint job.

Results were good as it should be for $145.00.

They quoted $175.00 per rim for powder paint coating only.

That's about average for curb rash repair. It only requires sanding, liquid aluminum weld application and sanding down for painting. It could be a DIY.

Repairing dents or flat spots is a whole different process to repair.
Think Capital Equipement to recuperate initial investment $$$.
Hence, $145 - +200 for dent repairs.

Pacific Rim in Concord. I was quoted $180 to repair a bend and repolish and powdercoat a wheel. I've also heard Rite Way is very good!

Very nice!! I think this is good deal. The most important thing is that your car is looking so good after repairing.

Riteway or Pacific Rim

Hello Guys

I spoke to both of them this morning.

Riteway charges 185 per wheel in walnut creek

Pacific Rim in Pittsburg charges 165 per wheel

I am thinking of shipping new tires from tirerack for them to mount and balance.

What do you guys recommend?

Ravi
