Fuchs Rim Repair

Hi,

I have a gouge on one rim lip. It is a 15x8 Fuchs wheel.

Can anyone recommend a shop to do the repair work? I live in Oakville. Thanks. Thanks

They repaired and refinished my gravel rashed Fuchs-outstanding job.They do pickup and delivery from/to tire dealers, I believe. Not expensive to ship either.

Thanks. I know that tire shops use them. I wasn’t sure if they had experience with Fuchs. I will use them. Any idea of cost?

To continue with the thread theme - anyone know of or can recommend someone in the Greater Vancouver area?

Cheers

Send them a few pics. Doug will surely give you a ball park.

When I lived in Vancouver I used www.greensautomotive.com and they did a great job. That was a while ago but somewhere to start at least.
