Wheel repair in GVA

Zoidberg · 11-06-2008, 08:47 AM

So, a friend of mine in Vancouver suffered some minor curb rash on one BMW wheel (3 series). The car is being lease returned in about 6 weeks, and he would like to see if the wheel can be adequately repaired. Anyone have a suggestion on where the wheel can be taken to attempt repairs? Thanks.

Here you go. A bit of a drive from Mississauga, but they do good work at fair prices. http://carconeswheelrefinishing.com/

No, I need a wheel shop in Vancouver. It's for my friend - I swear.

I went to Brian Jessel BMW dealership in Vancouver for wheel repair.

BJ contracted Alloy wheel repair to do the work on site.
same day service, no hassels, cheap, cost only $120
perfect matching color, great job, highly recommended.

If your friend is the hands on type, its not too hard to do it your self

Best place around Vancouver is Green's Wheel repair. They are in Richmond, behind Richmond Motor Sports (motorcycle dealership). Best repairs hands down. It's abig shop, and they ahve been doing it forever and know exactly what they are doing.
