rollo's racing on richmond did two of mine when I flipped. they looked brand new when I picked them up. 713-780-8083. 5524 richmond ave. This was two years ago so you might want to call and make sure they are still there.

I work at a bodyshop and we have many, many wheels repaired. Be careful with wheels america. We had some trouble with the clear peeling off after a few months. Wheel Wonders is who we use now. Also SABS is another company in Houston with a good reputation. If interested, send me an email and I will get you the phone numbers.

Where in Houston are you located? There might be some people here that have ws6 rims they might want to sell.

I have 2 Zr1's that are damaged. One is bent and the other is badly worn on the lip from a blowout. Doesn't seem worth it to spend 140 to repair the wheel. I figured it might be better to just scrap the wheel? Don't know how much it is worth. I also don't car about how it looks as I would use them for road racing so I'm looking for someone that could just fix the wheel and not worry about making it look perfect.

Grimlock what about that TTA?

You threw me off on that one. Were you interested in buying/trading it? Let's talk about this in pm.


To the other guy with the 1 bent and 1 cracked rim, were you interested in buying any rims to go racing with? I have two that are in good physical shape but the chrome is way beyod peeled off.
sorry for hijak.

I second that. The clear coat started to come off from two rims I took there. The only decent thing about the place is that they have a 24 hour turn over rate as long as it's not a chrome wheel. SABS is a good place. They take a little longer (2-4 days) but they did excellent work on one of my rims....I eat curbs a lot :-(
