Default Re-conditioning your rims

Hey all.

I recently bought a set of rims off of a board member and they had some pretty good curb rash? (whatever its is called when the lip of the wheel is scratched up from hitting a curb). So, I was referred by cknebusch to Prince's Reconditioning service. What a great job he did.

My rims now look brand new. If you have any rim damage, Justin at Prince's Reconditioning is your guy. The price is good and the results are really good.

Chris, thanks for referring him and I hope you guys dont need him , but, if you do, there is an option for ya.


See you guys soon in Wilmington, New Bern, Charlotte of wherever the next meet is.

I'm glad it worked out. Like I said, he seemed honest and did a good job on my wheels. But yours were way worse and to hear he did nice on those is good news.

Mr. Wizard, I'd get his number and give him a shout.

Here are some pics of my wheels. This wheel had the most damage (most of the lip was "curbed"). Also, here is the contact info:

I would love to know how he did that. Could make a good living I'm sure (he was working on a sweet Porsche when I dropped my S off)

He had lots o' chemicals (labled with numbers), a sander, and skillz.
