Default Nationwide Wheel Repair is who we use at BMW... turn around time for us is 24-48 hours.

To do a full service on a wheel (straighten, take out scuffs, repaint) runs about $175. Call 1-800-710-2368, ask for Rod. They have vans that do local pickups/dropoffs in NOVA.

Default Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists

Had them do several wheels for me and my brother. David does the repairs at the local dealers including Ferrari of Washington.<ul><li><a href="http://www.mobilewheelrepair.com/usa_canada/us_locations_virginia.html">Alloy Wheel Specialists: Mobile Wheel Repair</a></li></ul>

Default do they work on forged wheels?

one of my RG-Rs got slightly bent in a highway pothole encounter.

i called BBS and of course they say repairing the wheel is not recommended... "heating will damage the structural integrity of the forged alloy blah blah"

also, do you think they can match the diamond black finish? the paint will burn off during the repair process.. i was told.
