There is a guy I know who works out of his van and does wheel repair for good prices.
He did 2 of my forged rims and painted them to match perfectly for less than $200.
I was happy with his work. I can get his phone number if you want it.
maybe 25 minutes from you near pottstown.

You can easily do it yourself if you have the patience. And it saves you about $200 if you do it yourself as well. I've done my own wheels and a couple of friend's. Just look up what kind of products to use on google.

bump! please if you have ANY suggestions i'm open- only problem is the lips of all of them are basically torn up, so I can't really fix them myself.. I was told previously that I would need to get the lip filed down.
