clicky Wheel Collision Center

I've been looking for a place locally, but no luck so far. This is the only one I've found.

Well, truth be known my wife has been having no difficulty at all in finding the curb with the new 03 - 2 scuffs on the same right-rear rim. [Eek!] I was extremely [Mad] when I found out... but I've been making a joke about it lately & told her that if she does it again, I'm putting curb feelers on the thing [Big Grin] .

Anyway, I'm going to check out Wheels America in Union City. Hopefully they can repair the minor damage without spending too much $$.

damn curb feelers would be hella funny. thanks for the info. they want me to drop the rim off though for 24-48 hours so both cars will be down. now that sucks because its not my car and the peaple need it back as soon as my car is repaired.

Can't you just run on the spare for a couple of days? Maybe someone here can hook you up with a loaner rim/tire. If you need a ride to drop off the rim, hit me up.

i just found the spare in the trunk and its not even a dohnut. its a full on rim and street tire. so i'll have no problems now. its just the stock rim so it'll just look wierd with the after market bmw rims. thanks though.
