Does anyone know a place that does a good job at this, I want to mend my Orange Konigs they have the backside lip bent (2 of the wheels).
I was wondering if anyone has had this done and if it worked well for them?

There's a wheel place at the intersection of Precinct Line & 10 in Hurst that does that. I was at Bashear's and he showed me a wheel that they had done and it looked like a brand new one. If you want I can find out the name of it later today.
One of mine has been bent from Day 1. I'd like to find a place closer to me than Wheels America - like the place in Carrollton maybe? Hurst would be OK too.
This was one of the ::Censor::ups the McKinney Stealership did. They were bent from Day 1 and were supposedly fixed. They lied. (The other ::Censor::up was the clear coat respray they did on the trunk to fix scratches) - and they wonder why they lose customers...
Anyway... It'd be nice to know a couple of options for getting them fixed - and if you have personal experience, how long it took - and the cost.

Took my 01 there and they did an amazing job on un-bending and refinishing my wheels...not sure what your job would cost, but mine were $120/wheel flat...

Link!
I tried calling them several times a few weeks back to see if they had any tires for the OTM. I could never get them to answer the phone. :rolleyes:Quote:

Ramey at Bashear's told me that he wasn't sure if they only did dealership work or not but if they asked to just say he sent you. The wheel I saw had been damaged and needed new aluminum welded into it, and I couldn't see the repair.
Thanks Andy!!
has anyone had this done that can speak of structural integrity after repair.
I am just curious if there is any wobble or if it's prone to damage again in the same spot etc.
OK, I used to work at Wheels America, and, being a driver with them, I got to see all of our competitor's work. The one that was up to our quality was Wheel Tech in N. Dallas. TLC....I wouldn't let them touch my wheels. They'll cry "No Repairable" at anything that takes work, and they'll leave lots of run-out in it and not tell you. Seriously, if you don't want to use Wheels America (and I'll get you a good price at $99/Ea FREE MOUNT AND BALANCE, my wife still works there) then at least goto Wheel Tech.Quote:

Yep, I was about to recommend either Wheels America or Wheel Tech.Quote:
