another wheel repair thread!?

[stefan]

hey all, has anyone here actually used the mobile wheel repair guy yet? I see everyone recommends based on not liking AWR.. but couldnt find much on the mobile guy based on experience. Let me know, 2 of my wheels are borderline not balanceable with weights due to a poor repair job on some inner lip dings.

happy may long

Re: another wheel repair thread!?

so far so good. he said for one wheel, if the dent wasnt too bad, he could do it over night!! I had him look at a couple of my wheels, and wasnt in a hurry, so i will get them back on Sat. (still, just a few days). He cant do as much as AWR, ie: he can do inner lip dings, but if the wheel is too bad, his equipment wont do it. He doesnt have a balaning machine, but as he does most of his work for dealerships, he has access to theirs, so he can balance too (although their website implies that if your wheel is out of balance only because of the dent, he can fix it without need of re-balance). I am not getting any cosmetic refinishing done. Anyways, i'll update next week when I get the wheels back on the car.

I've got 6 wheels done at AWR, never had a bad thing to say about them.
