Rim refinishing GTA?

Looking for a place that does rim refinishing at a reasonable price,
Got some style 230s on that need it badly, also looking for some winter tires for those xi all wheel drive 17s (going to be used for my winter set).

Thanks in advance

Drew

I'm also looking at this. Precision rim repair seemed a bit expensive, so I'm subscribed.

Sorry for the last photo, had flash on and was in a rush to mount and balance. I took it over to Union on Saturday around 230, and they had it ready by Tuesday. Pretty happy with result and cost was not bad either.


I realize that the pictures do the repairs no justice. I'm sorry !

Union rim are garbage! Fixed some oem 19 rims a couple years ago when I had a g35, within 3 months they were all chipped, the pink primer was visible, and the rim cracked in the same spot where they welded. At the time there was no warranty, when I went there, they told me that it wasn't there fault. They are terrible would never recommend them to anybody.

Wow I'm surprised first negative I've heard

I had a set of iforged straightened
A set of bbs style 5 custom gold
A set of style 230 welded and straightened
The style 230 do tend to crack and mine did in the same spot they welded as well and they fixed it for free

I'm actually going there to get my style 95 done in gloss black can't wait!

What did Union rim charge?

Edit: I'm actually going to pass by Precision Rim Repair today and see what they say. Hopefully I'll have good news to post back with.

Re:edit: priced $200-$250, but I'll know for sure tomorrow. My rim has a slight crack and hop on that inner lip side and resurfacing on the face.

I haven't been to union because Precision Rim seems to have a decent price and no complaints from them yet....I'm putting a claim through the province anyways, so we'll see if I can just get a new wheel replacement instead

I still havent got a chance to call these guys yet with school and all, if i recall last year precision wanted 500 for the whole set including dismount and mount for my style 230s does that sound like a good deal? No cracks or bends just curbed to hell

That's pretty much what they told me which actually sounds like a great price assuming the job is done well.
