have a set of 17" Fitipaldi Interlagas rims.... We hit a a pot hole hard and bent the rim. I wanted to get either a new wheel or get it it repaired.... So I called around to check for rims straighten prices... Quoted from $100 - 125.00 to repair, plus another $40 - 50.00 bucks for shipping. back to Jackson..... I'll be driving back to Dallas in a few days and finding a local repair shop, to save the shipping......
I decided to check around for a replacement wheel, assuming another $200.00 plus bucks, I called Discount Tire, where the wheel was purchased(a few years ago for my 300ZX originally)...
Then I was hit with a BOMB...........Fitipaldi is out of business!!!
The salesman said that they sold a lot of Fiti wheels, but Fitipaldi business was failing from other issues...
Well, I guess I have to send the wheel off to get repaired.... Does anyone have any shop recommendations and $$$ for repairs... Preferably in the Dallas, TX... Shreveport, LA.... area, but any info will help.....
TIA,
Thomas
