    alloy wheel repair specialists... I use to work there, it isn't cheap (probably going to cost you like $150), if its chrome, it will probably flake/chip. Depending on how bad it is bent, it could easily break while repairing and then they charge another $50+ to have it welded, if its aluminum, steel wont break. Then if the tire doesnt seal properly for whatever reason, they will use black roofing caulk/tar to try and seal it up. they also mount/balance or can guarantee it to balance within like 1oz or something like that

    It is the only place around, if a shop says they can do it, they will charge more and have AWRS do the work. It is on center point road, just before Boyson rd on the left (if heading north), in the old Darahs building. Tell them Keith sent you and they will probably hook you up with a little better deal. They loved me up there!! Rodney is the owner and a great, honest guy, Francis is the "Nitrofill" guy and practically worthless, not sure who the techs are now, we all left and they have been through 10+ techs in the last few months.

    Be sure to get a set price from Rodney, techs are paid commission only and they had issues more than once with techs fucking people over. all in all it is a good place, they guarantee their work and it is the ONLY place around. Just depends on who the techs are now days.
