So just another recommendation for Son Tran who many have posted as a great mobile rim repair. He's mobile and does mostly Los Angeles area.

2 of my 166's of which he fixed 6 months ago got dinged again (LA has huge potholes and high curbs). Anyway I don't stress anymore when I curb a rim since I know he can fix it.

I had all 4 rims on my Audi Q7 with 22' black rims with a chrome lip fixed as well. My wife seems to hit every curb, and Son fixed 2 of them a few months ago as well.

Anyway, 3 hours later, 6 rims he just did a phenomenal job. You can't find the scratches and gouges (most were gouges!)

Bummer is that I'm moving back to the bay area next week so I'm going to have to find someone up there. Any recommendation?

Tell Son the guy with the Q7 and bmw 550 sent ya!

He's so nice btw..

Not yet thankfully, but my buddy scraped the wheels of his new MCoupe. I park 2 feet from every curb!
