Wheel refinishing in the Bucks County region? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

SoStock92 · 02-24-2009, 11:42 AM

I have a set of after market, hard to get, discontinued BMW wheels. They have curb marks from the previous owner. I started to strip one but failed with the chemicals I had access to.

I want to see about getting the curb marks welded up and making sure the wheels are straight. Then I am thinking I'll have Bonehead powder coat them.

Any wheel shops that will do this repair?

Thanks all!

curb marks welded up? how deep are they? I know liquid powder coats can get rid of the curb rash. I don't recall a company that checks if wheels are straight locally. You also have liquid powder coats for pc them too. Its another option in bucks county. I personally recommend martin and his services.

West Chester is fine, I just need someone to weld up some curb rash potentially and make sure these wheels are straight.

I've had wheels repaired by Wheel Collision and they did a super excellent job on a couple of my repair jobs....one was a serious smashed cast DSM wheel on my old Eclipse that they made like new along with refinishing them all; the other were my current Veilside wheels which they took apart, cleaned, totally refinished with black centers/polished lip, again a perfect job.

They're right by Allentown/Bethlehem Airport Road off Rt. 22 http://www.wheelcollision.com/

I sincerely hope the work was good, cause I just called for a quote to get my stock 17" rims finished in black and the quote was MORE THAN DOUBLE the other two places I've called.

And the two other places also have an excellent rep. Too bad considering they're practically in my back yard.

Wheel collision is amazing. I had them repair one of my Fikse's and it was perfect!

But I'm also looking for a place that will come to my home and fix a couple rashes on my 335i wheels. Anybody?
