Custom Wheel Refinishing in North Hollywood

I heard they were the best in wheel repairs and they didn't disappoint. They got curb rash out of one wheel and a bend out of another. Wheels look good as new. They are a little pricey but worth it. They were also very accomodating in giving me loaner rims while they did the fix. They took a day and a half. If anyone needs rim repair in the Valley, this is the place to go. They are worth the drive.

I don't ask, I just let them work their magic. LoL. I don't really know about the process but it can be done and there are a number of rim repair places that do it. They charged $150 for the curb rash, which was pretty bad. Custom Wheel Refinishing handles a lot of nice cars. A Mercedes SL500 was there when I picked up today.

I got there at 8 a.m. In 20 minutes, they had all my wheels off and four loaners on (they were only repairing two but putting new tires I had provided on all four). They were supposed to be done that day but were not. So I picked them up at noon the next day. Not really a problem given I had the free loaners, which were some brand new 17-inch Nissan wheels.

Phone is 818-764-7679. Andre and Ralph run the place. Address is 6868 Lankershim Blvd.

They all match well, my friend. And the place even polishes them up nicely for you.
