  • Bent rim....need help

    Hey guys....

    On my drive to work this morning hit an f**king pot hole and did the job on my rim. Just wondering where in town is a good place to bring it to and see what they can do about fixxing it.



    I might just be putting the winters on a little earlier then i was planning.

    thanks for any help that you might be able to give me

      I second that. Ask for the "business rate". Charged me $90.00/rim, and I cracked one of mine.

        If you had to ask for the "business rate" wouldn't you have to show something??

              No, I don't know if it's a discount or not. Could be 10% off or something. Worked for me though, and I didn't show anything. It was funny cause of course the dealership wanted 3x the price, and when I brought mine in, sure enough, a dealership truck rolled up with the back full of bent rims. Tough work for them...

                  the business rate is definitely a discount.
                  Normal price is $110 a wheel during the summer; when everyone is taking their wheels in to be repaired. During the winter when business is slower the price tends to drop.
                  I was very impressed with the work they did on my Oettingers.

                    To be honest if I wrecked a 17 I would probably buy it again since it would likely not be much different from a AWR price.

                      Not chearper than a BBS wheel lol..maybe if you get lucky and find a used one...but AWR should be able to fix that up, Mikes was worse than that and it looks real good now

                        Mine had a pretty bad crack on the inside of it, and after being fixed I have no road vibration at all. I was pretty impressed with their work.

                          THey did nice work on my BBS rim too, but they took WAY longer than they had originally said. Annoying!
