Coupin827 and I are working on a mini-meet "group buy" by a mobile wheel repair guy who can fix bent wheels, curb rash etc. More often then not the tire doesn't have to be removed, but the bead may have to be broken in order to repair it. I believe simply filling the tire up with air will re-seat the tire on the wheel. If we get multiple peeps, the cost will go down. I am usure if he can fix chrome (I highly doubt it). I have some gouges on the polished portion and Coupin has a bad rash (damn STD's) JK JK....

Anyway, who would be interested. Just trying to think of the right place. Who can host a few G's at their crib? LOL

Lemme know who is interested.

Their website is www.mobilewheelrepair.com (I think) so check it out and post up if you are interested. Supposedly the hours are dusk-dawn Mon-Sat!
Estimated cost to repair some curb rash is 80-100!

 

Wow you got the link right this time.

And the rash isn't that bad, and I have medicine for it, lol.

I'm going to be the guinea pig for this, SO if my rim comes out worse, I'll take donations for a new one here on driver.

 

let me know if u guys r gonna do this. im interested. i have 2 rims in need of some TLC. What do u mean who can host a few G's at their crib? if u need a place to do this i live across the street from my high school parking lot. its empty now due to no school, so let me know. its in jersey, about 5 min from the Holland tunnel. pm me or post up!

 

Im interested but is this only for the g squad? let me know. thanks in advance.

 

Good post...I'm down...I have a slight curb rash on one & the other has a bend on the lip...... let me know

 

No it's not only G-Squad, its open to all, but we posted it here since it is a NY/NJ thing and would get more attention here.

 

My rear rims needs some TLC... damn curb!

...and you wonder why I park like a foot away from the curb at minimum!

I'd want to see the guinea pigs rims first before he fixes (or damages) the rim.... Thanks John! haha

 

J-to see the rims you gotta make a donation first.

 

would i be able to ship my rim to you and have it fixed??

 

Just pm me coupin827 when you get a date set up. Definitely interested. Thanks in advance.

 

Nice!

Now where were you with this group buy few weeks ago ?!?! j/k ...

 

We'd rather not be responsible for someone else's rims. You could contact the company through the website and see if they will accept it directly. Try this once we have all the details worked out and tell them your with the group getting their rims fixed.

That's what we can offer for now.

 

Their website has "dealers" or repair trucks nationwide and apparently offer franchises too. That's my only concern with the whole thing but I guess each individual repair guys will be different. No way to know without testing. Can't really make it look worse so John gets to be the tester!

Now we just need a place to accommodate a few g's for a day! Since each wheel take about an hour, it will probably be an all day affair!

 

If John's wheel works out good, then I m def down. lol good luck John

I would be also down if John's wheel works out good. LOL
