Default Wheel rash fixed

After looking at my curb-rashed wheels for 11 years I decided to have them fixed. Took them to "Wheel Doctor" in Blue Ash (north of Cincinnati). They weld up the damage and repaint to original color, usually in 24 hours. Finish looks great, time will tell how it holds up. Cost was $90 per wheel includes tire mounting and balancing. I just need to repaint the center caps and lug nuts now.

Looks nice. Assuming they did a quality job, then $90/wheel is a great price.

RimPro is a good wheel shop in southern NH. I've used them to refinish my Cup1's. They did an excellent job.

Laker - Sorry, I don't have any pictures at the moment. They were refinished about 3 years ago.
