Just met up Son, at my house. He picked up the wheels and going to re-polish them good for me at a fair price. I will report back next week.

So, I made my appointment this past Saturday for my wheel to look brand new again...

One word can describe by watching him repair my wheel: AMAZING!!!

Once I met up with Son Tran, he took care of business! Great guy to talk with! If I wasn't talking to him, he would've been done in less than 40 minutes. I WILL go back to him if I have curb rashes or any other issues for my wheels. So here are my before and after pictures.

*Note: Same wheel, did NOT take a picture of any other wheel(s).

Can you give more info on your review?? maybe how much it cost for him to come to you vs how much it is to bring it to him? or how much per wheel? What type of finishes can he do? Is he just a wheel repair? or does he do refinishing as well, maybe re-polish with a clear coat? or black window on the spokes?

Looks like he just grinds down the lip on curb repairs which makes the rim weaker. Proper way is to take off the tire, braze or aluminum weld to fill the voids. Then sand and polish.
