a buddy of mine bent his 18s on his car. Do you guys know of any places in western PA that will fix wheels. The rim is chromed and has about a 1.5inch lip if that makes a difference.

Thanks

soopa

ah your in the best place to bend a rim

the best place for bent rims in the US is reportedly Wheel Collision Center in Bath, PA.

btw, chrome is the most expensive to fix cuz usually the chrome cracks and mutates when fixing so it has to be rechromed.

potentially $400+ to fix a chrome wheel.

Do they fix 19's by any chance?

just in case. I had to send mines out to Texas.

i looked at his chrome...it didn't look cracked at all. It was bent just ever so slightly...could barely tell visually, but it is definitely felt through the steering wheel.

Chrome rim repair is 225-300 dollars to repair a bend.. 4 weeks time... They need to rechrome the rim, so they ship it off to the West Coast (California, I am assuming) to be rechromed. I asked about getting the stock wheels polished and they said they don't recommend it, 225 a wheel to chrome the Stock rims... They had 2001 2002 Acura Stock wheels in stock and for sale for 200 a piece...WOW.... If you guys need stock rims because you got a bad one I recommend you call these people... They have been in business for 12 years so far and they are very very helpful.

Make this a STICKY
