Can anyone recommend a good (and hopefully inexpensive) wheel repair shop in the Bay Area (East Bay, South San

Francisco, South Bay) to fix scratches, dings, peeled off clearcoat? I need wheel refinishing work.

Is Kwicksilver Wheel Repair any good?

How much does Rite Way Wheels charge to refinish an alloy wheel? Wheel has scratches, clearcoat peeled off in areas, minor curbing.

I don't have wheel tech but the number for Rite way is

Jose Cruz
(925) 933-4046
1119 Alpine Rd
Walnut Creek, CA 94596

I know they contract out to Wheel Tech for anything they can't handle in house. So Rite-Way can probably help with info on both shops.
