Is this what you need?
When drivers book wheel repair.
The situations below are the most common reasons Chicago drivers reach out to us, and each one is something our technicians handle regularly, not as a rare exception.
Wheel and rim repair addresses curb rash, scratches, and minor bends in your vehicle's wheels, common damage from tight parking, potholes, or road debris. It's a cost effective alternative to buying new wheels.
Drivers with curb rash or scuffed wheels
If this sounds like your situation, we can walk you through your options during a free visit near O'Hare.
Anyone with a minor pothole related bend
We work with Chicago drivers in this exact situation on a regular basis.
Drivers preparing their car for sale or trade in
This is one of the most common reasons local drivers reach out to our shop.
What's included
Everything covered in the job.
Wheel inspection
This is included at no extra charge as part of your visit, and our technicians never skip it, even on smaller jobs.
Curb rash and scratch repair
We handle this step carefully so your repair stays on schedule and holds up over time.
Minor bend straightening where structurally safe
This is one of the details that separates a quick cosmetic fix from a lasting, professional repair.
Refinishing to match your wheel's original finish
Getting this right is what makes the finished result blend seamlessly with the rest of your vehicle.
We only repair wheels that are structurally safe to restore, and we refinish them to closely match their original appearance.
Not sure if this is the right repair?
Send a photo of the damage and we'll tell you what it needs — often without you leaving the driveway.

Getting an estimate
Free estimates — quoted from your car, not a price list.
Every job gets its own estimate
No two repairs are the same, so we don't quote from a price list. We look at the actual damage — in person or from photos — and give you a written, itemised estimate before any work starts.
- Estimates are free and carry no obligation.
- You approve the written estimate before we touch the car.
- If hidden damage shows up mid-repair, we call you before anything changes.
Insurance job? We handle it.
For covered repairs we work directly with your insurance company — the paperwork, the photos, the supplements — and bill your carrier. You pay your deductible and that's it.
Paying out of pocket instead? The same written estimate applies either way.
