Default Got curb rash? Incredible results with United Wheel Techs

Whats up guys...

First I just want to thank Ron at United Wheel Techs for the incredible job he did on my Auto Couture wheels.

I had severe curb rash on the passenger side and all I can say is that the results are nothing short of amazing! The wheels look brand new and the paint matches perfectly. Ron takes great pride in having the skills to match any wheel color. It is also incredibly cost efficient and convenient as well. I had Ron repair my wheels while I was working and a couple of hours later I came out to see his progress, it looked like two brand new wheels had been mounted on my car.

For more info see www.unitedwheeltechs.com You will not be dissapointed...they can repair any wheel that is NOT chrome. No need to buy a new wheel or have them dismounted and repaired anymore.

If your interested in having your wheels repaired, you can contact Ron directly at (714) 476-6637.
He has also agreed to give CL members who mention this thread a 5% discount. Prices for wheel repair start at $95 per wheel. Pics to come!

Is there a reason Lexus is not featured in the galleries?

I got a price quote of $100 per wheel to chrome my TT wheels from a local shop here in LA, and this includes repairing any minor curb rashes. For some reason his price doesn't sound too great, or maybe I'm missing something...

Is the fact that he's mobile and doesn't need to dismount the wheels what makes this service so attractive? Just curious...

He repairs curb rash and rechromes while it is on the car? Now this I have to see.

This is not directed at you Mike but I cannot see how this can be a thorough job.

Guys....

Read my post.......UWT does NOT have a mobile repair service for chrome wheels.

The price that is quoted is for the mobile repair of ANY wheel that is not chrome. They come to your location and repair the curb rash. No dismounting and downtime anymore for curb rash repairs.

See their gallery for the before and after pics. You will not be dissapointed.

I am suitably impressed with the results although I'd need to see it in person. One of the hard parts is paint match and it is hard to tell with the pics. It looks like they took the pics at different times so the lighting can cause the paint to look mismatched.

I know man, I feel the same way. I'm curious to know how thorough of a job it is as well, being as the tire is never removed from the rim. Hmm...
