Yes wheel tech has been around forever. just try not to let them know its a benz the price will go up.lol. I had a 930 turbo and needed some work and I knew the orignal owner and his prices. anyways I go in his brother sees the car jacks the price and gets on the phone, another employee comes out and i ask how much to fix all of the sudden the price is normal. the brother gets off the phone and I say WTF, the bro says hes new he dont know. I told him to F off and left.

If not try tommy at california wheels

First off do not got to California Wheels. They have horrible polcies and bad service.

Wheel Techniques is probably your best bet, MOst of wheel finishing, repair happens at Wheel Technique in the bay.

They are not cheap but they do a good job. Just negociate your price

Ca Wheels has alot of product but they are GHETTO and are shady.

Feels like dealing with kids who use the shop as a front.

If you get your car washed at AJ's they have a few different companies they may be able to suggest as well. Beschoff had a good wheel guy too but can't remember the name.

Have had exp with wheel techniques and agree they do good work.

just went to wheel techniques and they wanted 200 a wheel to fix it. they said that the BBS finish is very difficult and takes time to duplicate. including mounting and balancing, it would be roughly 400 for the two wheels.

it would also take 3-5 days. im not concerned with the time as well as the price seems to be some what of a rip off.

what do u guys think?

am i better off making the drive up to rite way wheels?

That is kind of steep. I dont know exactly what is wrong with your wheels. But I have a guy that can repair and repolish lips on wheels for 50bux a wheel and next or same day turn around.

I told you dont let him see the car! when john owned the shop that place was best price and best work. ever since his lil *** brother took over he trys to jack everyone.

curious why you call them ghetto and shady?

Work with Wheel Tech, they can discount,

ROCKETW19

me personaly I wouldnt I think that is disrespectfull.
why have 2 prices why not just offer the best work at the price you can and thats it. not its 200 bucks, oh wait your leaving ok its 100 bucks. F that.

went in looking for replacement wheels for my w202 when i cracked a wheel and they kept telling me they could make anything fit. And whenever i told them the application wouldn't fit they would dismiss me and tell me i didn't know what i was talking about. I like to go into a shop where the guys at least can speak a bit of proper english and educate me instead of telling me they can make anything fit. I don't think anyone working in the shop was over 21 years old which is not a problem but at least be professional.

maybe i hit them on an off day. they carry alot of good brands but would feel very uncomfortable leaving the C class there let alone the E.

wow Ya that sucks. the only person I ever talk to there is tommy he is the owner and knows these cars he has a couple himself. sorry to hear that.

OPALW208

tommy is a kewl guy. he knows his stuff. Unfortunately, he opened up a second store in Campbell, and he's ALWAYS at the new store now......leaving the original shop on Alum Rock run by others....................

I think i have seen Tommy at AJ's on saturdays - I think he owns a really nice SL.

I know for a fact I was not dealing with Tommy. Maybe I drop in to the Campbell store instead and hopefully deal with him.

going to call riteway on monday. if they can do it reasonably priced, id be willing to drive to hayward.
