I want to know what you guys thing about these wheels. I want to have them repaired, obviously. Do you think it can be done? If so, does anybody know of any good wheel repair places in Northern California.















EDIT: I got my wheels back this weekend

wow, those look pretty messed up.

The best person to ask if they can be repaired is the shop that is going to do it. Look in the phone book under "alloy rim repair" I think. Ask around, drive to a few places, get opinions. It won't cost you anything.

Cheers and good luck

 

yikes!

 

man, I don't think these are worth repairing. It may be worth more fixing than to buy another set. Don't get me wrong, I know what these are worth new.

 

Holy Crap dude

 

Are those Rhetts old wheels? I would try to have them fixed.

You are calling me a post *****?? Hahahha how true is this when you have "756 posts (4.09 posts per day on average)" and I have "1298 posts (1.15 posts per day on average)".

Ummm...1.15 post per day versus 4.09 post per day. What a funny comment. I never said anything about having more post or anything of that sort. I've got better things to do than surf though H-t and post useless comments.

No, it cool dude. Lately I have been seeing alot of thread back from the dead without any point. Flooding the board with thread with no point. This is one of the reasons why honda-tech is taking a **** lately IMO.

No no, you got me wrong, I was answering your question as to why it was being brought back from the dead. I too see a lot fo back from the dead for no reason.

But mostly I was just goofing around. Trying to lighten things up a bit, i guess it had an opposite effect. Oh well

Cheers.

just buy some rota's and use those center caps

be just as good and look the same, and save a lot of work

 

i hope your joking, because thats about the gayest thing i've heard all day.
fake rims (rota) is bad enough, but trying to pass them off as real wheels would be richard simmons status

they're ******* wheels....you can't have "fake" wheels...if oyu did...they'd be a ******* square or something

either way..it'd cost as much to fix those right as it would to buy the rota's...the rota's look identical and are just as good of a wheel...who gives a expletive if its "real" or not..you only go on looks anyways, not like there's ACTUALLY PHYISCALLY anything better about them

Actually "BRO" GAB's are a 2 pieced wheel and are very diferent from Rota gt3's And I am getting these "REAL" wheels fixed for a fraction of the cost of NEW Rota's.
