Default wheel restoration Vancouver
Any recommendations for wheel refinishing in the Vancouver area?

Thanks,

I used Greens to restore a set of vintage 3 piece wheels for my FF. Rims were bent , gouged, etc. They said they had got them to about 90%. When the wheels arrived I thought they were new. Not cheap but highest quality.

I had Panther Precision Machine to refinish all my wheels.

They did a fantastic job. It was not cheap. I think it was over $3,000 and that was 10 years ago.

Jup, I've had my wheels done at Greens as well.
They did a great job.
From other posts here, sounds like there's a few choices.
Good to know.
