where can I get rims repaired?

[CerealKiller]

I've found some Work Emotion rims which I'm thinking of buying but they've got a fair amount of gutter rash and apparently there's a dent on the lip or something like that.

Can anyone recommend me a good place in Sydney which can repair rims on the spot?

I give them the rims and they repair them while I wait. I don't want to have to drop off and wait like a week for them to be repaired.

also another stupid question: Work rims are expensive right?

[siksII]

i doubt many places would do that, as repairing rims takes quite a while, especially if there is a fair amount of damage like you have explained...

if they did, you would be waiting for a long time.

don't buy them , buy undamaged rims to start with , the cost of repairing them will be fairly high .

and repaired rims are NEVER as strong as new ones.

I brought 2nd hand rims last year and regret doing so, that said I brought a 2nd hand set of GTR rims and they are sweeet.

Yeah dude be careful of damaged rims.

Even after having repairs done, they can still leak air. My mate had his fixed and they leak about 1 psi a day so checking the tyres everytime he fills up petrol isnt too much of a hassle but its still a hassle we'd all prefer to do without.

And last time i checked, it cost around $100 per wheel.

the rims would most probably not be the cause of leaking air... it would be tyre valves. so get your mate to get his valves changed.

repairs can be a lot more than 100/wheel definetly more if the wheel is bent
