Hi All,

This question is for those people who live in the SF bay area. I'm thinking about getting my wheels which are now (painted silver with clear coat and polished lip) to a "brushed aluminum" look with polished lip. Does anyone know if it can be done and if so, what are some recommended shops in the area Thanks in advance.

Good question. I was wanting to get the lip on my rims polished. Any have a recommendation?

 

a bead blasted and then clear coated rim would look pretty nice

 

Try Wheel Techniques in Santa Clara. They're website is down, but hopefully they're still around. I had a couple rims (curbed and bent) repaired by them a while back.

They did an excellent job, one of the rims had a polished lip and half the rim was curbed pretty badly. I paid them about ~$110 and got the rim back in almost perfect condition. They also do custom stuff, like painting and polishing.

They're located right off of De La Cruz and 101.

Thanks for the info!!

 

Thanks Bert039. I had another person recommend Wheel Techniques the other day. I will definitely check them out and plus they are really close to where I live. Actually, i tried calling them on Saturday and no one answered. I'll try again on monday.

 

Cool, np. Hey double check the number though, its seriously been like 3 years or so since I was there. I also found a different number (408) 496-6363. I'm not sure which one is accurate. Let us know how it goes though!

 

Here's the correct site:

http://wheel-techniques.com/

and the correct number:

408.496.0404

 

Thanks again Bert039. I haven't called the numbers you originally gave me since I've been swamped at work. I'll call them tomorrow. hopefully they can do the job as well as be cost effective!
