Rim Shops
« on: January 07, 2012, 03:51:14 pm »
Hey everybody,

I've got a bent rim I am in need of repairs on. I'm just hoping to find someone on here who might have experience with any places down south, or who might know a friend that did.

Let me know what you guys got.

Panther wheels in surrey was recommended to me, they do work for the ford dealership on the island so they must be good.

based on my experiences, unless the wheel is not replaceable or is under $200 to buy ... dont bother. 

there is also a place in port kells, think its Nu-Lines.

Our shop uses Green's for damaged wheels. ICBC Stuff.
Objects in mirrors appear to be losing.

Yea the rims are irreplaceable as far as I know. I have looked on ebay for a set of 3 or something but cant find anything.
