    Wheel repair in D/FW area

    I know about Wheels America in Duncanville. But Daron had mentioned a place somewhere north of Dallas that he uses.

    Any one know? I've sent Daron an e-mail, but haven't heard from him.

    Wheels America wanted $135 and Wheel repair solutions wanted $120.

    They could both tell the shop to not refinish the wheel, but it doesn't affect the price.

    :roll:

    I have a 3 lb. sledge hammer. I'll do it for a 6-pack of Keystone.

    I think Wheel America has a NASA discount. Maybe 10% or so for what it is worth.

    In this day of weighing cash flow against value ...

    1 wheel repaired $120
    A pair purchased for $200
    A set purchased for $300

    I appreciate the offer.

    However, it's a Pontiac and therefore requires a little more finesse and precision than what you are used to.
