Bent Rim

Bode · 06-21-2005

I have an aftermarket wheel with a bent lip. The wheel does not hold air pressure, it all just leaks out of the bent part on the lip. Does anyone know a good wheel shop that straightens the lips on wheels?

I've been told by a bunch of people that Precision Wheels in Hopkins is the place to go (the lip on one of my LE37's got bent by a pothole). Unfortunately I went down to Hopkins yesterday and couldn't find it. Make sure you get good directions.

Thanks, I will try and find it.

they refinished an SSR comp for me, also fixed a curbed porsche wheel for a friend. I didn't know anyone there and paid $180 (ouch), he knew someone and paid $70. I've heard that Precision Wheel is similarly priced - they are who Hopkins Firestone uses/recommends, as well.

the porsche wheel was an 18, so you should be fine
