DMV wheel repair!!!

Hey guys I need to have one of my wheels repaired again! Its cracked and the last guy I took it to did a bs weld fix. I'm looking for a shop or person that knows of a place where I can take it to get it fixed. I'm located in Silver Spring MD and would prefer somewhat local. Does Paul fix wheels? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Also does anyone know where I might be able to come across a set of tsx silverstar wheels? Random but thought I would ask!

Have you considered Wheels America. They do a great job a fixing rims. Also you can find a place were they fix wheels and take your wheel as a core and send out an identical repaired wheel back to you.

In my opinion if you have already gotten this wheel repaired once you might as well buy a new one.

Thanks for the input guys and I'll check that out Morgan. Believe me I would love to buy a new wheel but it is absolutely impossible to find! It is an Advan Kruezer V 19x7.5 in graphite finish. Found it a couple years ago but couldn't find my specific wheel. When I got it fixed last time he did a weld job from the out side of the wheel but I think it needs to be welded and sanded from the snide since that's where the pressure is pushing out from. Thanks guys and keep the advice coming!

No info on the tsx silverstars?

Yeah I'm always on the BM but no luck with the silverstars. Before I picked up my cl I saw one with these wheels and have always wanted them. I'm sure a set will come up when I don't need them anymore! Thanks for the info Joe!
