Hey guys i need help from my fellow GTA'rs.

Was driving on the 401 and a damn flatbed dropped a piece of steel right in front of me. Couldn't react in time and ran the damn thing over puncturing my tire and rim

Any place i can get this 18 inch alloy wheel welded or repaired in the gta? any recommendations ? Unfortunately the rim is discontinued and i searched everywhere

Help!

I used these guys for my rim when my wife curbed it a month after we bought the car. Great work.

They came to where I work, lifted the car, repaired the work, painted and baked the color and clear coat in about an hour. I think I paid him $150 under the table. In the future if the damage isn't bad, I would consider doing it myself now as it's a simple process to paint but just time consuming to prep the wheel.

Well I ended up using my friends suggestion and went with a guy on caledonia, north of lawrence. I believe its union rim and tire repair.

140 plus tax to weld and straighten rim. I find it not bad cosidering the damage done to it. Guy guarenteed it would be balanced so let's hope so.

If it weren't for these rims being discontinued I would of just got a new one. Ohh well.
Better than buying a whole set of 4.

Ill let you guys know how it goes.
