Need Wheel Repair Bad!
Aloha,
I bought a used set of Brabus Mono Block IV's off Craigslist and one rim need to be straightened pretty bad. . .Has anyone had any luck with a mail to company? Is there anything recommedned that is reasonable in price? The vibration at speed is getting to be a bit much.

What's your definition of bent bad? My previous rims were completely bent out of shape... more like an egg than anything else. Not worth fixing if it's badly damaged like that..... it will NEVER be same as new. It will be cosmetically fixed but that's about it in terms of guarantees. If someone tells you otherwise, they are lying........

Check out Wheel Collision Center - they fixed my 19" Brabus. If you're driving on the rim and the rim's holdng air, the rim is not that bad. Wheel collision was recommended in Car and Driver and they gurantee their work.
