SF Winning Vs Curb...

Well ive had my wheels for about 2 years now...never have i presonally done damage to them...i got my alignment done at Tire Kingdom...and they knicked each wheel real good when they installed new tires (ill never go back)...than a few days ago my mom took my car to the mall to pick up some rice (insert funny asian joke here ) my car is automatic, and the 745Li that we have baby sits the garage, and the minivan is in Tampa with my dad...and my brothers 350 is a stick...and blocks the garage...so the easiest way was to take my car...
so when she comes back i find this...

all i could say was OUCH! so i am trying to find a place to refinish all 4 lips...as you can see it needed to be done anyways since 2 years of hot sun and brake dusts have left its mark, so any suggestions? thanks ahead of time

Damn man, that sucks. Did you complain to Tire Kingdom and are they helping you out in any way?? If not, that's B.S..

You should check these guys out. I've done business with them in the past and they did a good job.

I'm not sure about pricing on that as I had a cracked rim from a pothole fixed from them and it looked like it was brand new again when I got it back. They're open right now, so give them a call real quick before it gets too late and ask.

check out www.turbax.com , they have an office here in jax and will come pick up your rims and deliver them back to you..

I had similar damage, and had it fixed by wheels america though (the Dallas location) and they did a good job. I actually shipped my rim to miami, but it got lost somehow. It's all good now...just don't use USPS, haha..

but yeah, that's an easy fix right there...my lip was actually bent.

WWW.FIXRIM.COM

that's the site for wheelsamerica. They will charge $130 to fix a rim, regardless of how bad the bend, curb rash is... this price includes repolishing and clear coating... add around $30 bucks for shipping. That was my price for one wheel. Maybe they'll work something out for sending all 4?
