Default Local Rim Repair?

Hey guys, does anyone know of a rim repair shop in Northern NJ? I have a small crack in one of my rims and the air is slowly leaking out of the tire. Thanks

This doesn't answer your question, but at least where I live (In Toronto), it costs more than half as much to have a rim refinished as it did for me to just buy new (Lexus) rims. If you're talking about the stock 17's, it might be worth it to just use it as an excuse to upgrade.

By the way, how the heck did you crack them? I've never managed to crack a rim in all of my years of driving.

If the RIM is cracked, it should not be repaired and should be replaced with a new one. Its a big safety issue.
