Looking for a wheel refinishing place
Looking for a wheel refinishing place
Hi all!
I have a few sets of 16 inch Diamond Spoke wheels that have some clearcoat in bad shape, and the black needs to be redone as well.
Does anyone know who/where does the refinishing?
I have posted this on the SoCal, and SoWest section here, but everyone tells me to do myself.
I have a rear set that I have done one already, and still have one to go (doing these in white), however, I don't want to have to do 2 more sets!
I was hoping to find a shop close by, so I could save on shipping for two sets.
All these are extra, as the wheels on my car are in perfect shape.
I want these to go on two other cars that I have.
If I can find somewhere closer, i may even take my other extra rears in to be done too.
Thanks,
George

George,
I offer wheel reconditioning, though you would obviously have to ship them. PM me if you're interested.

You might try talking to a used tire store, or a place that sells OEM wheels, even some salvage yards have links. They usually send out the wheels to have them refinished.
You can also try http://www.78ta.com/ Contact "Hitman" He does late 2nd gen restorations, I know he refinishes his own wheels... A really nice guy.

I live in Boulder City, NV. I check out the "Las Vegas F-Body" website. I am including a link to a question dealing with the subject, and the answers given by local members. I am not a member of Las Vegas F-Body.
If you use either one of these companies, please let me know how satisfied you are with quality and price.

Thanks guys.
Las Vegas isn't so far.
I didn't see a phone number for D and H listed on the LV site, but I'll try the web phone book.
Fullerton would work as well. Thanks Don.
I have over 8 hours in one wheel doinf myself, and I don't feel like doing more than 1 more.
I figured that I could drop off some wheels, hang out in that town (I have family out in the Los Angeles area-and love hanging out in Vegas) till they are done. Then, load up and head home. This saving on shipping all these wheels at $40.00 there and back, per wheel.
My local town is too small, and has nothing like this. I figured the bigger cities did do it.
Again, thanks everyone,
George

Bob,
Thanks for the heads up.
I go there about once every 6 months to check out the site, and keep forgetting about them. Duh!
I'll have to bookmark them, and sign up!
I will post how good they are when I get them done.
Thanks,
George
