i never thought about getting the dent taken out. how well does that work?

I think WheelWorks is on rt 130 around Burlington and they do a bunch of wheel widening/repair work.

With out a doubt go to Wheel Works. Just got my tt2 fixed last leek. Had one pretty good dent in the lip and a very small one i didnt even see but when he turned it on the wheel he has it was clear as day. Cost $125 and had it back in just a few days. Take the tire off before u go.

he works some different hours so call before u go just to make sure hes there. I think his name is Tim but i cant find his card.

It seems like typical repair prices are in the $75-125 range. It's not like it's a custom widened wheel so it's not really a rare piece, is it? What is the cost of a new one?

jts98z28 11-26-2009 10:00 AM

nah its a normal rim...but im pretty sure that a new one costs 200 bucks so it looks like its half as much to get it fixed
