Cool Polished Fuch Wheels: N. Calif.

I am looking for somebody to professionally polish my Fuch wheels in Northern California.

Have any members had their wheels professionally polished anywhere near the Sacramento area? If so, who did it and how did you like the results?

Has any member heard of a polishing business called Weidman's Wheels, Oroville, California? Precision Wheels, Sacramento??

Any response would be appreciated.

Sincerely,

JFITZOZ

Try Weidman's Wheels 530-534-7903...

I've never used them but have heard great things and IIRC Harvey used to do the shop work for Wheel Enhancement before one of their "reorganizations".

I don't have the location handy but I think they advertise in Pano and/or Excellence.

Call Rite Way in Walnut Creek. They did a great job in polishing my 7 & 9 Fuchs.

or send/ship them to Al Reed Polishing here in SoCal (Anaheim). Great work , very cheap pricing. Search archive for phone # and raves about him.
He painted (Blk) and polished (lips) my Fuchs 16x7,8's for $50.ea

good luck

Yep, Al Reed is another great choice if you're willing to ship the wheels.

AL Reed Specialty Polishing
3010 East Coronado Street
Anaheim, CA 92806
(714) 632-3907

I don't know for sure, but I suspect Al Reed might be somewhat cheaper than Harvey Weidman, for comparable quality work. Probably couldn't go wrong with either one. YMMV of course.
