Bay Area place for wheel repair.

OK I accidentally curbed my right rear wheel. Niello in Concord charges $200 a wheel. Is there any independant shops with better pricing? I know Niello has someone come in to do this for them.

Thanks in advance and yes I'm not happy about this, it sucks!

I've never done any work there but I've heard many good things about their work.

don't fix it as you might end up curbing another one sometime near future.

Nice response, if that's so, then I should never wash it since it might get dirty again. Everyone has choices and mine it to keep it nice looking.

that's different though! imo. car getting dirty is something you could fix without spending any extra money. but a curb wheel will most likely cost you $60-120 to fix. when i got my wheels i curb it accidently after 4 days and i was pissed as hell and wanted to get it fix asap but then i think of about it am i gonna curb another one near future! well, i did last weekend. lol

I hit a 4 inch patch of the lip and then 180 degrees from that another 4 inch patch of the lip and just a bit of one of the spokes. It really bothers me so I've got an appointment with Rite-Way next week. Thankfully I didn't bend it so they are going to reapair it. Yeah I'm picky and I really like these wheels

All I can say is this place quoted the highest to repair my rim rash and said they would need to have the wheel for THREE days! Mind you I don't have fancy rims just the stock 19s. No other place said they would need it so long! Needless to say I went elsewhere and fast.
