Long Story Short, I went to get a wheel/tire balance and I was informed that one of my wheels were slightly bent.

Does anyone have the #/location of a place who does rim repair at a reasonable price. I would prefer the VA area if possible. Thanks.

 

MEEH TOO!!! WELCOME TO THE CLUB!! UR NO LONGER STRAIGHT! HAHAHA

J/K... NATIONAL WHEEL REPAIR WALDORF, MD, AND ANOTHER LOCATION IN VA. I HAVE MINE IN THE SHOP; ALL 4 ARE BENT. INSURANCE WILL COVER IT, FOR 20'S $150 EACH, I THINK $130 FOR 19'S

301-638-0075 2586 OLD WASHINGTON RD WALDORF, MD

I GET MINE BACK ON FRIDAY. GOODLUCK MAN

 

It's not VA, but Ye Ole Wheel Shoppe in Elkridge, MD will repair just about any wheel...

 

Ok here is the update,

I took my wheel to National Wheel repair today and they took off the tire/wheel and found that I have 2 bends in the wheel and they are on opposite sides. One bend is right above the spoke and the other is on the back end.

They inspected and told me that it was a risk to touch because the wheel looked like it had been "stressed" enough and if they pulled on it, that it might start to leak air while I am driving and I would have to refill it every 30-45min.

Has anyone ever had this happen to them. The only other option I have is to order a new wheel. Does anyone know of any other options that might be available to me before I go down that route?

 

I guess you get what you pay for in wheels

you got money now man, go for davins

 

^This coming from the guy who has the slowest 'G' in the club
He loses to everyone

 

let me know what you decide. i have a stocker 18 i need refinished/touched up. sorry to hear about the probs you got w/ your wheels...

 

this from the guy who cant and wont race

All those mods do is make your wheel wobble more lol

 

you should get that fixed though lol

 

plastic wheels with cheap chrome paint are bound to bend sooner or later, sooner than later , sike naw, good luck man, i hear nothing but good things about ye old wheel shoope

 

Well my final decision after looking at everything I could do is to basically order a new wheel. It should be here in about 1 wk. Then just to shut Ali G up, I guess I will race him

 

name the time and day man. It's a done deal.

you did order the wheels from Hasbro right?

 

^Nope, actually I got the front two from Tyco and the back two from Hot Wheels if you must know

 

it does suck that the shipping and handling cost more than the wheel hahahaha

 

Yeah, it must also suck that your Athens is sooo inferior to mine and that you are still running stock wheels.
