I like The Wheel Fix - They will come right to your home and pick up and drop off the wheels. I have used them before and they do excellent work. I am planning to use them again this fall. http://www.wheelfix.com/contactus.htm - Glenn

You can speak to Ron at Carcone. They are up in the Woodbridge/Concord area.

I have been using Rote Technology (Collision Networks) for years. High quality work, finish and service. Steve Rotenberg looked after my magnesium turbo cup wheels with a lot of care and refinished them to an Audi pearl white.

They have recently closed down Collision Networks and moved the wheel refinishing business to Bestline Auto Body / Tech on 144 Freshway, seconds away from the old shop 905-760-7444.

I play tennis with Steve but he has never mentioned that he closed down Collision Networks. Any idea why? When you say they moved the wheel refinishing to Bestline, is that were their refinishing guy(s) went?

I called the two number on their website and one has been suspended and the other one is out of service. Not too good for business. This is strange.
