* EDITED: this thread started to find best rim repair/refinish shops. Also touches on paint versus powdercoat.*
Has anyone used either of the below for wheel refinishing / painting?
1.) Discount Tire
2.) Alloy Wheel Repair Specialist inc.
Both are national chains.
How is their pricing ?
Were you satisfied with the work?
How long did the refurbished rims last you?
Apparently Discount Tire will check the rims to make sure runs true before they repair/repaint. Plus I can use their credit card and maybe get a slight discount.
Are they(DT) reputable or would they tell you the rims are no good and get you to buy new rims?
Currently sent both email requests for quotes and am waiting for response.
Plan to get wheels/rims stripped, sanded, prepped and repainted or maybe even powder coated.
