Default The Wheel Doctor

I had a curbed rim when I bought my '04 and had ideas of replacing it eventually. It actually helped get the price of the car down lower. Trying to find a good rim, nearly perfect, at a good price w/shipping put me off for a while. Patients.

Then I came across The Wheel Doctor. I took a wheel to him to look at and he convinced me he could do a perfect job. This company must specialize in Crossfire rims because it is perfect color, perfect condition, perfect pattern. It is amazing that you cannot tell it from the rest. Do not be affraid to have wheel blemishes & curb rash repaired from a company that specializes in the field. They even had loaner tires/wheels to keep you going if needed.

He explained the process but would NOT allow us in his shop area. He was serious about his secrets of the trade.




I asked if he changed tires/balanced wheels also. I have a source to get certain brand tires at true wholesale price but was affraid to change them myself worrying about damaging the TPMS. He will change them over, dispose the tires, electronic spin balance, all for $15 a wheel. I didn't think that sounded too bad.

If you live near the Cincinnati and want this guys number, give me a shout, you won't be disappointed. Drop off one day, pick up the next.

PS, Once I got home, I made a template to fit inside the rim. I cleaned and painted the inside of each rim, high temperature black. It made the silver really stand out and now I won't have to worry about seeing brake dust between the spokes on the inner rim.

PS - This is a different rim from the posting in Crossfire Coupe.
