Anyone use Seattle Wheel Service for wheel repairs?

whostorm05 · 02-10-2012, 06:09 PM

Hi Everyone,

I'm buying a set of used Advan RZ's and one of them had an unfortunate meeting with a curb. According to the owner the damage is light, but I would still like to get it repaired prior to putting the wheels on the car.

I did some google searching for Seattle wheel repair and found a shop called 'Seattle Wheel Service' in Seattle. Anyone heard of them or have any work done there before?

The reviews I have read so far are overall positive.

I have been tempted, but not yet. Post your experience if you do.

I visited them on Leary in Freemont and went elsewhere. Did not get a comfy feeling from them , mainly how they kept their shop. Have used a private guy that Seattle BMW turned me on to. He does not advertise and mainly just does dealer wheels. Does all the wheels for Ferrari and Maserati of Seattle. He does a great job and sprays the entire wheel when repaired verses just the repair area. he's expensive though. I can PM you his contact info if you'd like.

Thanks mswaz. I actually just got back Seattle Wheel Service and the guy seemed really nice, don't remember his name. I think I might just put the wheels on there as they are for right now. I got the wheels today and one of the wheels is deffinetly worse than the other three. He said that 'if' the paint guy could indeed match the dark gunmetal that the wheels are it would be about $185 per wheel to repair.
