this is a service offered by my old roomate jack. he is [SIZE=4][COLOR=Blue]AZNDOC [SIZE=3][COLOR=LemonChiffon]on zilvia. if you have any questions you can pm me here in this forum.

just fyi although not cheap, the quality is top notch and still waaaay cheaper thsan buying a new set of wheels.

on average 19's run for a about $250/wheel, plus you cover all shipping costs. the box you send him, will be the box he sends you back. any questions let me know and on to the pics.

wheels i bought from yokota, (grant) from his upgarage service.

AND THE NEW PICS!!!!!!
we had the inner and outer lips polished, and the face completely redone too. than all is clearcoated separately and then reassembled. with the claer coat all you need to do is rinse these wheels and the shine will be good as new again!

inner barrel:

[quote=vip tint+glass;203142]wow i know he hooked you up but what does he charge[/quote]
as stated, about $250/wheel for 19's.

i will be at the AF meet so come see them in person there.

VERY NYCE

Sweet, but better be @ 1 gee.... y'know.

Looks great!

Here's what I recommend to keep them in top shape!

At every wash, use the following:

P21S Wheel Gel
Swissvax Wheel Brush

When you go to wash the car give each wheel about three or four sprays with the wheel gel and then use the brush to work it up to a lather and cover the entire wheel (getting in all the nooks and crannies). When rinsed, only a super clean microfiber, and you will ensure that your clear coated lip will not get scratched up. 

Clear coated lips will not oxidizing like non-clear coated ones, do require careful attention to ensure they stay 100%.

nice!!

holyshit that looks really good.

They turned out awesome!  Do you have center caps for them?

Terrific job!!  I sure know who to send my wheels to if they get banged up

so $1000 to get it refinished and repolished?   and pay shipping for both ways?   I dunno...

They were all chewed up before.  I didnt think they would of came out that nice.  Great work

wow that looks extremely clean.

what if there are bends in the rim?

Can he do SBC finish? I have one Racing Hart CP-F Tuner that I need refinished please PM and LMK

I guess it's worth it IF the rims are discontinued.

whats that wheel gel? any alternatives?

Flawless, I love it.
That definitely made the price of the wheels go up a notch.

Great job!

I remember him on Zilvia and does great work!
He has a very good rep on Zilvia last time I was on.

This is a great option for people out there!

Very impressive.

[quote=vzuptnguyen;203276]whats that wheel gel? any alternatives?[/quote]

It's the best. :biggthumpup: It's formulated to be used on ANY wheel surface, no matter what it is, and can even dwell for several hours and not cause any detrimental effects.

Money well spent ...... totally worth it

They definitely came out nice gotta pay to play...he hooked you up cant wait to see them on the ride...

saw these after alex took those photos (sigh tire blowouts -___-) and they are as beautiful and shiny in person as the photos suggest!

thanks for all the great comments. any questions let me know.

it can be done. when ready send me some pics of the wheels first and we will see what we can do for you.

Saw these in person today. They looked fresh.

????????

Nice work. I just got done color matching a set of volk wheels and set the outer lip to a professional to get polished.
 
I've fixed a couple rims before in my time and just to let you know this is a great deal. It could take up to a whole day just to repair one rim and there is alot of patients and time needed. Great work and do you have anymore pictures?

Alex...its cool to help others on the site but this seems more like online advertising. Please contact Admin.

so does the face still have the diamond cut finish?? i cant tell from the pics

wow.. on average $250/wheel??? thats incredibly expensive! the place i go to wouldve done those for about $175-200/wheel.. and theyre known as the expensive place to go to in town. they also refinished my curbed lips for $100/wheel, cant beat that!

edit: i just read it includes shipping back.. so its really not that bad of a deal afterall

well, is there a possibility of re-barreling wheels?

Performed a great service to those wheels... 
 
They look really dope...

I can't see the extent of the curb damage, but did he add metal or was he able to just sand it down? They look great.

he does top notch work
ive seen some miracles

read it again, it says you pay all shipping costs. sabs is top notch, in town, and cheaper.

These came out clean but $250 a wheel! That's a grip. 

Does that $250 include special finishes as in custome colores or chrome? Is there a better deal for locals?

custom colors like black or brone or white can be done at no extra charge. chrome may be more depending on the given wheel.

[quote=antbo;203999]so does the face still have the diamond cut finish?? i cant tell from the pics[/quote]
+1

i will probably go local but it's nice to have options. did he remachine the face or was it not machined to begin with? quality looks great!

Abra-Kadabra!! Brandnew:giggity:
