I called wheel technologies off of 35/valley branch and it's closer than wheels america, well closer to me anyways. I just need these fixed asap so the closer the better.

And yes they are my CCW's.

The guy I spoke with said they would charge more if they had to disassemble the wheel.

No the cowl would've blocked my view even more and would've caused more damage.

I'm dropping off one of the wheels in about an hour to get fixed. Hopefully have it back next week.
