^^yeah no kidding. Thats the reason why Im so afraid to get a really nice set of rims.

No matter what your wheel is they always look soooo much nicer without a bunch of chunks taken out!

Kevin at SLMETALS in West Babylon. The only place I would take an aftermarket wheel! 631.491.4313

He does great work! Price is fair-expensive but if you want your wheel to be as good as new or better, that's the only place to go!

umm, i think 200 for a set of 18's is super low.. im having all 4 of my 19inch Maya's refinished now for 115 a wheel.. thats worth it when they cost 500 a wheel..

Unless it's a show car, sooner or later the wheels are going to get knicked no matter how careful you are with em... take a turn down an unfamiliar road with potholes, metal plates, or loose gravel and your perfect rims are going to take a hit. I've babied mine from day one, but the roads just suck around here and while I do have a couple of little scratches and a little ding, nobody but me notices. It does suck when it finally happens though
