Just a little fired up...Wheel Repair?

[sdkkv]

I got new tires put on yesterday and when I went to pick the car up I noticed a "white line" around one of the front wheels. Upon closer inspection, the "white line" was a gouge about 3/8" in from the edge and went about 1/2 way around the wheel. Of course that wasn't the only wheel...yep...they got every single one of them. The shop said "no way our machine could do that...it's a special machine".

They've since agreed to pay for repairs to the wheels. He got pretty quiet when I told him the price to replace the factory 18" Sport Design wheels.

Anyone have any experience with this type of repair? I've seen the companies advertised but haven't seen what they can do myself.

Thanks,
