Rim Repair in Orlando Area?
Unfortunately, I had a battle with my bank's driver thru concrete lane divider and it did a number on the front right wheel of my new Platinum with stock wheels. Can anyone recommend a reputable rim repair service in the Orlando-Altamonte-Longwood area?
Thanks in advance. |

Hubcap Daddy I think can do it. I've never used them but they are recommended by all the local tire shops...

Thanks. I actually found this site that has independent operators all over. There are 2 in Central Florida. Here is the link to the main website. I am going to try them. I will post a review after they finish the job.

my brother works at ford of clermont, i believe they have someone that specializes in that...i can find out for you if you still need it. What part of orlando are you in? Im in Winter Park
|
Do you need to leave the tire with them overnight to do repair or this something you can sit and wait while done??
Price??? |
how much they charge to recondition ? i bought my max used and have some wheel scrubs

The guy/company I posted about above will come to you and do the work on site. He quoted me $125 per wheel. I don't think that is unreasonable especially if he does a good job and since I found the site, I received a recommendation for the guy I will be using. They must sell territories so where I live is basically 2 areas divided by two guys. One is central and south Orlando and the other is north Orlando to the Daytona area. I am in Altamonte so Mike Collard covers my area. I will post the results of how I think he does after the appointment on Wednesday.

A quick update. The owner of the Alloy Wheel Repair franchisee for the area, Mike Collard, came to my office to repair the wheel. I think he did a great job. I've attached before and after pictures.

Looks pretty good!

Not only looks good, but is a lot cheaper than buying a new wheel, moving the old TPMS sensor to the new wheel, moving the old tire to the new wheel, and getting the new wheel and old tire rebalanced.
Yes, your man did a good job. |
