I've seen Bentley's and S55 AMG's getting their rims put on there so I don't think they are crappy but again what do I know. Any input would be appreciated.
They do an amazing job. Just remember, you get what you pay for. As far as the other place you went to, do they sell wheels and just so happen to do minor repair on the side?

I had the same issue with 2 rims and went to a place in Fairfield NJ, the guy wanted about $200 each and someone on this forum had recomended the place... in the end i just went and bought 2 new wheels at $250 ea. only $100 more for both and i have new wheels.
