Wheel Repair in So Cal

KingZee · 09-20-2010, 03:56 PM

My dad and I traded cars over the weekend and he totally jacked up my rim on a curb (poor guy was scared to tell me). I called Dr. Wheel today and they're coming out. The guy said $60-$90 over the phone. Do you guys tip the technician that comes out or just give him exactly what they quoted?

Ouch...hope it gets fixed!
When are you gonna come out to the meets and canyons?
I didn't get to see your car when you came by my shop.

I'm itching to do a canyon run but want to wait a couple more months until I can get an oil cooler installed. I know I can survive without one but I don't want to limit myself. Did you get the Stillen cooler? How's it working out?

I really wanted to come out on the 11th but couldn't make it, hopefully I'll be able to make the meet on the 6th. I'll give you a heads up if I can make it maybe we can roll together.

I got the Stillen 25 row
Working pretty well. I don't see my temps getting higher than 220.
