Hi,

Don't forget, for many of us, expensive optional or aftermarket wheels are part of the deal. Shopping for Discount work may not always be prudent. Make sure they have the proper equipment and properly trained personnel. It's also probably not a bad idea to get a comittment from them beforehand that if the wheel is damaged or scratched, that they'll pay for replacement/repair - could save a lot of frustration and work later. Also, if you have a digicam, it's not a bad idea to shoot a pic of the Tire/Wheel before you have the repair done so that there is no question should a wheel be damaged. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
