Long story short, I let my girl drive my car one day and she bent my 166s which were basically brand new (about 2 months old)... So does anybody know any local repair shops they can recommend....Thx

Ouch, man! Thank God she's ok and she didn't suddenly lose pressure and control of the car. You should explain to her that driving these cars isn't like driving her mom's Honda though - educate her and maybe teach her some active safety/defensive driving techniques, then slowly bring her into the "pothole avoidance 101". Its a process, man - an uphill battle in most cases LOL but its really for her safety too - and for your peace of mind.
As far as the wheel repair, contact member brabusw209amg :thumbsup: Last suggestion: you may wanna consider painting or powdercoating the inner barrels black (or some other color) - search through the forums, I've seen people have done this and it looks AMAZING :thumbsup: Good luck! |
Wheel Fix It in Freeport, Long Island has done a great job in fixing/reburbishing my wheels.
Don't blame your girl. Blame the atrocious condition of the roads. Members here in the NYC area are getting bent wheels and b?own tires in very high numbers right now. |

I took my rear 124 to my Local BMW Dealer, and they sent it out to be fixed and they did it for free! The service manager and I are on first name basis lol. My cars way outta warranty too.
They did an awesome job repairing the wheel, should have cost 80 bucks. |

I thought that George's business got bought out by someone? But yes, if its still around, I can attest to their quality - I've had two wheels repaired there and both times it has been nothing short of perfect :thumbsup:

Sean at Wheel Fix It told me that George sold his interest in the business at least a year ago. They have refurbished 6 wheels for me and all were done well.
