Theres outfits that do such a thing apparently so anyone had it done and how much coin was involved? My old coon has a nice set of BBS alloys which have suffered somewhat due to the previous owners wife parking like wives do :bleh::msn-wink:

Arrow wheels up here can do it and I have heard good things about there repairs. I believe they also make wheels. Bit of shipping though.

Royce Clive Engineering or Elite Wheels, both in ChCh are good. Both regularly repair bent or damaged rims.

Edit - My daughter tells me that people parking on the wrong side of the street is common in Oamaru, so i imagine rims on both sides are damaged....

Cars is from Invercargill where its said they park em on there roof on a regular basis,that said 3 outta the 4 rims are pretty bad,they would have cost the guy plenty when new but.Wonder what the time frame is to get em done,sending a rim up at a time would work but a pain in the arse,will give them a ring and see if i could go up there for a couple of days drop it off and pick it up sorted.

Elite wheels in CHCH do good work.

Mrs B added to her work on my Fords front rim recently....
