Wheel Techniques in SJ.

I hate the feeling of curbing a wheel. It bothers you for a few days.

Can you even walk up to the car on that side?
I would make a roundabout approach until I got mine fixed.


So.... are you really feeling bad about your car? I bet you feel sick everytime you drive. I know you're not driving as much because of it.
You should give me your sways and grounding gear. I wouldn't want them to go to waste.

Wheel techniques is the best. Rite way in Walnut Creek does good work, but their turn around time is inconsistent.

Sorry to hear about that, bro. Having done this recently, myself, I can definitely feel your pain.

+1 on wheel techniques and rite-way

wheel techniques: best work, but time is inconsistent and they're always backed up

rite-way: from my experience usually a 1-2 day turn around, good work from what i've seen. usually go to this one since its close.

Both are good, honest repair shops. I brought a dented wheel once to rite-way and they said they couldn't repair it, so they recommended me to wheel techniques which took care of it perfectly. took a week though.

Ouch.

This just happened to me last week for the first time. I wasn't even parking. Some car was sticking out of their lane at a red light. I went around slowly, but I wasn't able to see that the curb stuck out more in the one part I was trying to squeeze through. The damage is on a part of the rim where I don't think they can fix it.

Anyhow, good luck getting it fix, Rob.
