So i curbed the living hell out of my front and rear driver's side wheels last night going at a reasonable speed (fast) took a turn too wide, Jack in the Crack fell outta my lap, was distracted, hit curb hard.

50% front wheel curbage, about 30% rear wheel curbage.

Any good shops in the Houston area for wheel repair? Ive been recommended to SABS off Bissonnet as they do many import car wheels (Volks, Works, etc)

Thanks again for the help gentlemen...

 

that doesnt look too bad...totally fixable (w/some manual/elbow grease) IMO..

sux - and GL...

 

$125 at a good wheel shop can make that look like it never happened.

 

^^^^ +1 some charge $50 a wheel as well...just have to look around..

 

Ya SABS quoted me $99 base price, no lower per wheel.

Trust me, the pics suck and do the curbage no justice (iphone)

Thank god i have a step lip and not a curved one.

 

Doesn't look too bad? That **** looks terrible for me. I nearly cried when I accidently curbed mines and it's not anywhere near that bad. I got quoted like 120ish per wheel or something like that as well. 99$ sounds like a good price.

 

i need to try jake's suggestion on my wheels... i'm worried about it not being smooth though...

i have a dremel... lol

 

take the tires off and fix it yourself... lol.... use a power sander to smooth it out and then wet sand it and polish it.........

 

My buddy goes to SABS. I don't like their work. Wheels America on 290 and Mangum fixed 3 of my HREs. $125 flat rate/per wheel. They did excellent work. They are located on Sherwood Rd.

If you do go to Wheels America, don't get their clear coat on high polish finish. They powder coat it on, which leaves it not-so transparent. Just have them polish the lips, if you want the lips high gloss polished finish...

 

SABS - re-finished my wheels and I thought they did a good job considering I provided no info about my wheels. I forgot to mention Wheels America.... my bad Mike.

 

I know that feeling... did about 40% curbage one of my rear lip couple moths ago, just haven't had chance to research good shops, I will try to check out those mentioned above.

GL with the fix...

 

daMN that blows! I remember when I did that to my works. I was so p1ssed off I didnt wash the car for weeks. +1 on wheels america, heard nothing but great things from them. Ask Ryan the vendor from Jdm autosports he suggested someone else as well, I just cant remember the company.

 

Im gonna try out Sabs, went there after work yesterday and was quoted 99 per wheel after they saw damage. Place looks good, they had alot of nice cars in there (New Lexus ES, New Acura TL, etc, and there were a couple of sets of Volks in there being fixed.

Good enough for me, im dropping it off on Monday evening and they said it will be ready by Tuesday evening.

Thanks again for the help fellas.

 

Yeah, definitely go with Stogey on that one. I feel your pain.

 

on stogey's side of town HUBCAP DEPOT... ask for chris he takes pride in his work(he is the owner) Nacho used to work there and they do awesome work. its on dixie farm near ellington field.

 

just sell them to me for 100, Mike!

 

That's good to know.
(knock on wood) Hope I never have to go there.

 

get the car in the air turn the car on...have someone let it run on 1st...sand it out with some sandpaper and felt...

 

Ouch, I've done something similar and had it repaired for $110 at a local shop.

Expect to pay no more than that amount.

 

+1 for Sabbs. They have fixed 3 of my rims. They do a great job and are very nice.
