Posted by 1998EclipseRS, Jul-09-04 06:33 AM
I have a set of 18s and my mom drove my car and SCRAPED THE SHIT OUT OF THEM... I need to get them fixed ASAP.... is it even possible to do this? They are Excel TZ-10s from wheel max, they are straight but 2 have scraped up fucking sides.... any help is appreciated.

Look online for a "Wheel or Im Repair Shop" They can fix rims but it's not cheap. If it is really scratched they weld a line of the same steel your rims are made of onto the scratch then sand it down and repaint em with real wheel paint.

I got a quote to fix 2 GST chromies ....one was "scratched" and one is bent and scratched (stupid G/F for me, mom dont drive my fuckin car)

He said $50 for the scratched and 150 for the bent one.....canadian $$ foo.....

so I have no clue. They were specifically a rim fixxer shop .
