I know someone who had some bad curb rash and the took their rims to Les Schwab..... Les Schwab didn't fix it themselves, but outsourced the job to a machine shop that did a great job. Wish I had a few more specifics, but hope this helped.

I recommend

Foster's Wheel Service
4012 Leary Way
Seattle,WA. 98107

They did an excellent job on my 19" Volk rim. It took them about an hour to do. Cost me $130 for dismount, repair and wheel balance. Well worth it!

Check out:

WheelMaster
37635 39th Ave S
Auburn, WA 98001

Ph: 253-952-4876

He's repaired a few wheels for me over the years, performed miracles on more than one occasion. This is a "cottage" business, don't let the building scare you. I've followed the "directions" on the door, and left my other car's 3 piece BBS wheels without ever having a problem. And Maury (spelling?) can talk, it's all very interesting, but I think he's put the sign with instructions, so he limits the amount of time he spends talking to folks, which is cool.
