I want to get my stock SiR rims refinished as they have a few rashes on them. Anybody have a hook up or knows of a good place?
Any idea what it would cost to do all 4?
Thanks

yup...takin a stab in the dark with my $2000 rims n' tires...lol...
obviously im gonna look at what they have on display and pictures of work they have done for other customers...they quoted me something like $68 to machine a lip per wheel...refinishing the whole wheel is more for you

only if they don't like you.
I was up there the other day......they didn't charge a guy the extra $$ to re and re his rims.
If you ask nicely, they ussually don't charge you for this......the only time I saw them do this, was for a set of really low profile tires on a set of really wide rims........took a good 1/2 hour just to put on one tire. (very tight)
I think they were Porche rims.

wheelfix.com quoted me $122.50 for their complete re-finishing job, which I think is a bit high. $100 is a bit more reasonable.
There are no tires so....they don't have to worry about that. I'm going to get them done this month or next month and then in may when I get the tires I'll have the tires put on, which isn't a big deal. I just want to get some prices/places before I do it.
