My wife introduced one her rims to a drive-thru curb. How should I go about tackling this? Its a Lexus OEM rim.

There are a ton of mobile rim repair companies. Google search rim repair.

I know I have used Redline Rim Repair(I think thats the name) on some clients vehicles and they have always been pleased with the prices and quality of work.

Most rim repair companies are pretty cheap too. I would check a local dealership and see who they use since most dealers have a wheel repair guy.


but don't google rim job.... :doh:

Like other people said, there's a lot of repair companies. They usually will take your damaged rim, and replace it with an already restored rim. Saves you a little dough.

But, I think if you ask them for a rim job...it may get pricey! :eek:

I thought "rim job" would generate some posts. Thanks for the feedback peeps. I just wanted to know what you guys thought.

Autozone has a DIY wheel/rim repair kit. Wouldn't hurt to check that out first.
