Wheel refinishing V70-XC70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Kosmas Moutis on  Sun Apr 1 11:01 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I'm thinking of refinishing my alloys before putting them on the road with summer treads. Has anyone had any experience with shops in the Toronto area that do this sort of thing? I know some of you have suggested places in the US in the past, but with the exchange rate the way it is, as well as the cost of shipping 4 wheels, a local shop would make more sense.

Koz.

    Wheel Wizard in Hamilton. Best guy ever. The man can fix/refinish ANY wheel on the planet and you'd swear it was brand new. Number is in the Yellow Pages

      VolvoFan,

    I had my 850 rims finished at alloy options in St. Catharines Ont. Top notch job all their work is since they due make beautiful exhausts as well. I don't know their ph #. but their web site is www.alloyoptionson.ca

    I promise you great work.

    Andrew

      Andrew,

      Thanks for the reply, I couldn't navigate their web site for some reason, so I don't have any more info than what you gave me. If the other two places don't pan out, I'll look into it further.

      Koz.

    Hi Koz.

    I just had 5 (17" 7 spoke R) rims refurbished at Precision Rim Repair. They did a very good job at a fair price. They would not quote me until I brought the rims in for inspection. Their book price for a refinish is $100.00 per rim. Here are the details. Good luck.

      Paul,

      Thanks for the info. They're fairly close to where I work, maybe I'll pop in on my lunch break and have them give me a quote.

      Koz.
