Hey I'm looking to get a Wheel of mine repaired.
If your in Hamilton what's usually cheaper?
Wizard Wheels
or Wheel Worx
(only two places I know that do it) I've been by Wizard Wheels before in the past
but they gave me a quote that ended up being way cheaper by me just replacing the wheel.
hell I'll go out of the city if the place is cheap enough.
My Rim has two bents on it.
It's not really a replaceable wheel, the style is replaceable but the wheel isn't made in 13" anymore.

Wheel Wizards.
Likely the best choice, especially in Hamilton...

our shop deals with rim/wheel worx in hamilton for example

also went to them to get a quote on one of my rims to get a bad curb rash buffed out they quoted me $80....just havent had time to take the wheel off to get it done

newmarkets way too far to even consider, this rims from like japan and they dont even make knockoffs in this size, so yeah the rim is either too expensive or virtually irreplaceable in Ontario.

for an irreplaceable rim, a 2hr drive isn't that far lol.
Little bit of show, little bit of go.

Focus-SE,
Are we talking steel or alloy?
You could try my buddies at Caledonia Tire.
Mike (Sr.) has always treated me well.
They are (905) 765 3242.
Good luck.

I had my wheels repaired at union rim repair in Toronto. They did a real clean job and a good price.

I went to Wheel Worx (they are actually an 8 minute drive away from Wheel Wizards) guy told me 80 bucks to fix the rim, got it next day fixed all nicely.
