Hello,

I'm posting this to ask if anyone on the board knows if there is a decent wheel restoration shop/service (any shop other than Wheel Techniques*) is in the greater San Jose area the general SF Bay Area, Ca or even anywhere California for that matter? I'm searching for a service that specializes in wheel restoration. Price is not an issue for quality workmanship & customer service. Thanks in advance.

*I am not all happy with Wheel Techniques aka Wheel Tech or SIK Industries located in Santa Clara, Ca as they are disorganized & communicate quite poorly IMO. I don't want to bash them as individuals but I have had two different sets of wheels restored by them over the past few years and there always seems to be some issues with obtaining the desired end result based on what they initially had told me they would do. Doing what one says they will do means a whole lot to me, the customer. I will go out of my way to not to do business with Wheel Techniques again.

In CA. no. I can tell you a shop here in St. Louis did a great
job on mine. For $145 each they were bead blasted, trued,
painted & baked, then clearcoated. Their silver metallic was
an excellent match. That also included balancing w/inner rim
adhesive weights & tire mounting. Might give you an idea of
what a quality re-finish runs. Good luck.
