Union Rim Repair ?

KCX_335xi · 08-13-2012, 05:30 PM

After doing a bit of research, it appears many on here are happy with their services ?

I bent my rim Friday night, going fast on Dundas Street here in Oakville, and hit the new asphalt bump pretty hard...

Any other shops you guys trust, preferably in the west end ?

Thanks !

Precision rim is a good shop had good experience with them. Ask for Ric he will give you a pretty good deal.

Cool thanks...

I might also consider just buying a new one...

Union did a great job on repairing a cracked 19" 225 wheel and a bent 225 wheel last year. The ride from Oakville was not convenient but they did both rims in 4 days.

I've heard too many horror stories from Union... in fact, Precision gets a lot of business fixing Union's screw-ups! Precision is the way to go around here.

Can you elaborate on what exactly happened?

I've had 2 of my own rims repaired there and one of my friends' as well. I don't have a complaint. Straighten and refinish for $200ish and a 4-5 day turnaround isnt bad. Isn't precision expensive?
