There is a place in Elkridge, Ye Old Wheel shop, i heard that they are really good, and fair pricing.

 

yup i know of them, they aren't 100% they can handle the job. It is a wheel on my 3rd set though so i can spare it for a month or so

 

To be completely honest with you, if they cannot fix your wheel then its trashed. Im good friends with the people who own that shop and they do not BS you. They are the most honest people you could deal with regarding auto repair as 9 times out of 10 they will tell people to just buy a new wheel instead of having it repaired since most aftermarket wheels that people own are 125 to 200 bucks a wheel. There's no sense in paying 100 bucks to repair a wheel that costs 150 new.

What kind of wheels are they? No offense, but unless they are higher end wheels (above 1000 bucks JUST for the wheels) or they arent made anymore, you should usually just buy another wheel.

 

panasports, i actually found a buyer for the 3 good ones too
thanks for the heads up though
