Wheel repair recommendations in Los Angeles?

[jmeenach]

I hit a pretty bad pothole that gave me a small flat spot on two wheels. I checked and I don't have a crack and the tires hold pressure fine, but I do have a tiny vibration from the flat spots. Does anyone have a recommendation for a place to go?

I've been looking into this as well. Could get fairly pricey based on the wheels you have. I'm up in Thousand Oaks area and haven't found much. Curious if anybody will have a recommendation as well.

I found this place called affordable wheel repair in Inglewood, but that's a pretty far drive, and I haven't found anything else. Would prefer a place someone on here has used before.

Son Tran is the best when it comes to dings, scratches, nicks, etc. He does excellent work. I don't know if he works on your specific situation, but it's worth a call given how good his results are.

Last time I talked to him, he was going up to LA every week.

Son Tran doesn't fix bends, but for everything else he is absolutely incredible.

No bends but what about curb rash? On some matte gray wheels? I'll give him a call and see.

Curb rash 100% he fixes. Check the reviews on the Yelp link I sent.

I need help with bends. As I said, they are minor and if possible, would like to avoid sourcing two new wheels. Any help is appreciated.

Just called him. He said he'll fix it 100%. Charges around $75 per wheel. Based on his reviews and what you guys say, no reason to go elsewhere. I'm probably gonna go to him next week sometime. I'll post on here before and afters.

So how was the result?

[jmeenach]

FYI I went to Affordable Wheel Repair in Inglewood and had great results. The shop is a little hole in the wall, but He only charged me $100 to straighten both wheels and they look good as new.

Does he repair peeling of the clear coat on a set of rotors? Does he do this type of work?
I am looking for a shop to resurface the wheels, there are no bends or curb rash on any of the wheels.
The wheels are 4-5 years old and could use some resurfacing.

Thanks.

Pss.. I had Son Tran refinish my set of rotors and he did an excellent job on them.
The wheels look brand new.

Went to Son Tran at On Site Wheel Repair in Garden Grove.

Drove down from Ventura and Dropped my car off, played a round of golf, came back and got new wheels. I had dents, scrapes, curb rash... it was magic. $60 per wheel. Have to pay cash. Did an unreal job. I hope to not have to go to him again, but without a doubt I would use him if I needed to. Did an incredible job in a short period.

Thats awesome! Good to know. I once had someone come to me for curb rash, did it on the spot in front of my house, but charged $100. Great job though.

Affordable is great. If you drop it off first thing they can usually have it done the same day.

I was in need of some help this afternoon, I took a drive and saw Son Tran, he worked his magic on my wheel and my problem went away.
It is great to know that we have him on hand to bail us out of our screw ups.
Thanks Son.
