Thread bump,
I just moved here from Arkansas again, this time I brought car. I bent my wheel driving around baltimore last night
I searched the forums and everyone in the dmv recommends ye old wheel shop. I called them and the guy was rude, not sure if I want them working on my wheel...

"Why cant you give me a quote by the description over the phone?" would be a stupid Q, it gets asked 50X/day.

nah br0. I asked him when he had time, and if I could text him a picture of it. He said no, and he was his schedule was really busy. It seems like I don't have a choice but to use their service. I just don't like people who run a business and can't even be polite to their customers. I take it he's a friend of yours?

Call up tomorrow and ask if you can setup an appointment to have a wheel looked at to get an estimate for wheel repair done.
See how they handle that.

when I had a bent/cracked rim i called them up, got a really shitty attitude and was told it would take at-least 2 weeks to fix. Obviously I didnt get a good feeling and didnt have 2 weeks, so I went elsewhere. Obviously most can attest to their work being great, I just didn't get that far.

@jeffie, I wasn't asking for the price. I've read that it could cost 125+ per wheel. I'm cool with that, I just want it fixed.
Thanks for the advice. I live in bethesda so I definitely will call them before I go there. I wish I could drop it off but I don't have a jack or a four way to remove the wheel. That would be easier because they could take their time and I would pick it up when its ready.

Actually, many of us here in the Mid-A do.
Did you speak to an older man or younger guy?
And trust me, Im not defending the rudeness, we all bust his ***** about his CS when it comes up

After putting off the hour drive from VA to Bmore for nearly 2 months now and multiple failed attempts at other "wheel repair" aka "rape you and take your monies" shops, I finally manned up and drove there yesterday.
1.5 week turnaround is sucking the life out of my soul, but he says he can get the wheel back to 95% PLUS they gave me a stocker wheel to drive on for the duration.
I'll attest to the curt attitude over the phone, but when I met the guys, they were pretty helpful. Then again, I have *****...
Aside - my shoulda-been-1-hour-commute home took 4 hours. Thanks rain and crappy semi-drivers who jump medians.
