Hey all,
I just had my GTA wheels done at wheel techniques. They are in Campbell, CA. I had purchased these wheels from a guy in NJ. He told me that there were no curb hits. When I got them, they were absolute junk. Two of the chrome lips where almost gone and one of the wheels had a dent in it. I paid 470.00 to have all four fixed and painted/chromed. I could believe the result. I couldn't be happier. NIGHT and DAY. I'm very hard to please and never boast about things. I will always recommend wheel techniques from now on. They do AWESOME work.

later.
John
