Any advice on vendors for aluminum wheel repair?
Looks like one of my winter wheels has a dent in it from hitting a pothole sometime last year. Still holding air, and no paint damage, but a pretty good sized wallop that needs dealt with.
Any recommendations?

I was going to post the same link. I've spoken to one of their repair guys and he seemed to know what he was about..... I talked to him one day while I was at NTB getting some new tires installed, he was in the parking lot fixing one for their customer.

Re: Aluminum OEM wheel repair?
Alloy Wheel Repair does their repairs without dismounting the tire. That may make them a little cheaper, but they also cannot get right up close to the lip where much damage occurs. There is a place up on the West Access Road at Shawnee Drive and 635 that does really great work. They charge a little more because they break the tire off the wheel do their work, then mount and balance.
Just depends how picky you are I guess.
