In a moment of extreme stupidity yesterday (that, and being distracted by my gf trying to tell me something, but I know better than to blame it on her. ) I pitched my wheel into the curb and put some good rash on it. I don't think it was hard enough to bend it or do any real damage (might have knocked the alignment out a bit), but just the fact that I know it is there is going to eat away at me until I fix it. Their website is a little hokey, but I'd like to believe that they don't need to have a flashy website since their work speaks for itself and they have more than enough business... http://www.truwheel.com/index.htm A friend recommended them and said they could probably fix it for around $100. If anyone has any direct experience or knows someone- please share stories! Thanks. | | | 11-05-2008, 02:48 AM | #2 | Moderator Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: SoCal318ti Posts: 1,574 | Hey Zoner! Welcome! Don't know this guys but $100 for fixing a wheel is not too bad, hope someone else knows them and share. | | | 11-05-2008, 02:57 AM | #3 | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 | Harold, hit Gino up.

Gino's username on this forum is saintse36. He hasn't been around much because he sold his Ti a few months ago. Try shooting him a PM, and I'll give him a call tomorrow. __________________ 4 MORE YEARS BABY!!! | | | 11-05-2008, 07:44 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2008 Location: Oxnard, CA - SoCal Posts: 258 | I can personally vouch for Tru Wheel. They have fixed at least 10 sets for me and my friends. I trusted them with my HREs so that says a lot. Ask for Sandra and tell her "Roadtrip" sent you. __________________ - David | | | 11-05-2008, 10:04 PM | #8 | Moderator Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: SoCal318ti Posts: 1,574 | Quote: Originally Posted by cooljess76 Harold, hit Gino up.
