I went ahead and hired Wheels America to refinish my wheels. They dismounted the tires, bead blasted off the existing finish, repaired the curb marks and power coated all surfaces of all 4 wheels. They did do a great job, but only after I rejected them twice. The first time they neglected to put clear coat on the inside of the wheels. This would have made a great surface for brake dust to collect. The second time there were just a few too many marks from the clamps they used to mount the tires. The third time they looked great. Got them back on the car with the new Porsche crest center caps I bought online and they look great. All in all they came out great but instead of it taking the promised 24 hours, it took 4 days, due to the re-do’s. Total price was $120.00 each with my body shop referral discount + $20.00 each for the mounting and balancing. If I had it to do all over again I would have taken them up on the free pick up and delivery. I finished them off by coating all wheels inside and out with Klase all in one to ward off the collection of brake dust. I guess the moral of the story is, don’t buy a car with curb marks on the wheels like I did and watch out for curbs! I'll post pics a little later.
