He my best buddy so I'm not too pissed, but lemmie ask has anybody done a rim refurb job????

Is it worth 1-200 bucks to grind/ polish it out or should I just pony up for some good shape used rays 19s. (That's what I run)

The question is after they rub out the curb rash will the wheels look "good as new???"

Maybe I'll just get some of those cool darker metallic colored 40th anny rims and call it an "upgrade"

Opinions???

Yes, it's worth it. I've had numerous experiences with this situation. There are mobile outfits that will come to you and have you all fixed up in an hour or so. You won't even notice the difference once its done.

Thanks guys. I'll give it a go.

p.s. my bud feels bad and offered to pony up some $$$ to help grt em looking good again. I bought the car used with some curb rash all over, maybe this little event will get me looking better than "new"
