Default Wheel Restoration So Cal

Hello everyone,

Looking for recommendations for wheel restoration in So Cal. I'd like to get me stock wheels looking new again and would appreciate any help.

Thanks!

Cheers,

I've used Globe Tire & Automotive down in Manhattan Beach to refinish my lobster fork/tails.

My mom has a guy coming tomorrow to do a refresh on the wheels on her Maserati QP in OC. I’ll report back after the job is done. She is HARD on the curbs to say the least.

I recently had my 2-piece BBS Sepang wheels done at Calchrome. They stripped the chrome, sanded, then powder coated it with great results. They also have loaner wheels so they came out and swapped the wheels outside my garage. Did take 2 months though...they're busy.

+1 for CalChrome. They black chromed the centers on my Work wheels. They are busy but the results were excellent.

Where in SoCal? I’ve gotten many of my curbed wheels repaired/resprayed by Son Tran and his team at OnSite Wheel Repair. He does amazing work and been going to him for over 14 years.

I'm up in Idyllwild, which is in the Inland Empire. The wheels are off the car, though, so I can drop them off anywhere. They are the stock wheels and I just want them to look as new again. Nothing fancy.

He used to be mobile when he was solo but I think he’s anchored in the OC now since he now has a team. Good luck!
