Damaged new wheels =/

[R&TN]

Hey all.. So bummed out right now. Was in the southcentre parking lot at the new CIBC, trying to find where the damn doors are located so I could take care of my newly compromised debit card...crawling through the parking lot, searching.. WHAM, smoke this little stealth-curb. Such an IDIOT!

Damage:
Front has small chunks missing and a decent rash about 5 inches long
Rear has an inch scuff, not too bad

Was wondering if anyone has any experience with Alberta Wheel Repair? As I'd really like to not shell out another wad of cash for 2 new wheels.

Let me know..

Idiot Boy

How bad?? Lets see some pics of the worst one. If its really bad, then it cannot be repaired.

Go to see Andre at Alloy Wheel Repair, or rather he'll come to see you. He just recently fixed my three-piece wheels on the Porsche and they look fantastic.

Andrej the mobile wheel repair guy is your best bet. He may not be able to get them perfect but you can talk to him about what can be done.

I went with Alberta Wheel Repair a couple of years ago, they did a great job. I had a bent rim that needed to be repaired. From what I remember it took a day or two to complete and it was awesome. It was around $100.00, I would recommend them.

I have dealth with AWR before and will likely never use them ever ever again. I would type it all out but a quick search will likely net you many of my rants.
