Rim repair shops in the Bay Area?

Hi,

So I managed to dent my 20" Work Wheels the other day and it seems to have screwed up the balancing on my wheels. I start to get vibrations at high speeds now and it's getting more apparent as I drive on it more.

Anyone have any suggestions or good experiences on shops in the Bay Area that would do a good job on this repair?

Here is a picture of the damage... Ouch, yes I know.

Thanks in advance.

Alvin

Try Rite Way in Walnut Creek or Wheel Techniques in Santa Clara.

Memory Fab does it. I was quoted 900 for re-lipping. Wheel Flip in SoCal, same thing relip 2 rims runs around 600. You just have to ship them. Havent found anything else in the bay area though.

X2 Luis is the best. I left my car there and he came and picked me up from the Bart Station (after hours) so I could get my car
