| Cheapest place to repair rim rash/scratch
Anyone know of a relatively cheap place to get rim rash fixed? I scratched my two right wheels against the curb. I phoned Nubrite and they estimated it would be over $200 per wheel. Posted via RS Mobile |

I've been to Greens and Panthers. You can give them both a call.
Usually, visual inspection gets you a more realistic estimate.

The cheapest place to get curb rash fixed is your garage, DIYing it really isn't very hard just labour intensive. Posted via RS Mobile | |
