Default Rim Repair Shop

Guys I need a rim repair shop prefer in LA, but I remember there's a popular place in OC that was cheap and did good work?

TIA

I Was Sent A Pm A Little While Back When I Asked For The Same Recommendation. I Believe He Is In Oc. If You're Interested Pm Me And I'll Forward You His Contact. I Was Going To Ask Him To Paint My Rims But Got It Done Prior To Relocating To Southern Cali. Let Me Know.

Custom Wheel Service in Anaheim = $120 per rim quote plus I have to remove rim from tire myself.

Lucky 7 Racing (Jimmy)= $50 - $80 per rim plus $10 extra if they remove rim from tire for you.

I just got back from seeing Jimmy and got a good vibe. He looked at my rims and said it's not worth it for me to fix them as they need a lot more work than your average curb rash. This proves he's not just out for my money and a good guy. I did see another rim he did and it looked pretty good. I also spoke to a repeat customer and that guy had all positive things to say about Jimmy so I recommend him. Oh and they're open until like 10 pm.

I too talked to him today and he sounded like a stand up guy...He quoted me $350 to fix my curb rash rear wheel and to polish the rest of them for me as well. Lead time is about 5 to 7 working days for them to be returned to me....I am going to go out to his shop this weekend to possibly drop them off to have him fix them....

Thanks for the information AsianGirl007

Cheers,

+1. These guys are great.

Going with Sander is cool too and doesn't charge much, however it's done off site by a third party last I checked.
