um.... you gotta take the rims off the car and drop it off. I don't think these hot rod guys are gonna do it for you.

it depends. What kind of work are you doing? I've been there so many times for myself and/or friends that I know what they need off , and the ones you can leave on. LOL.

I wouldn't recommend TruWheel, avoid them like the plague. I sent in my Work VS-SS rims to get repolished and they broke my center cap off my rim (where the center cap screws onto the face). The owner sad it was a poorly designed rim and it was bound to happen. These are $600+ per rim. WTF kind of response is that?! Instead of admitting fault, he puts the blame on Work. Guys on crack, avoid the place.

I had the wheels for my 350Z done at Tru Wheel they are 20x11 and 20x9.5 3pc. J Lines, they did a pretty good job but i dont think the wheels came out perfectly straight ( can feel it at 130+) and the place is sort of ghetto, i dont think i will be going there again!
