This was a mark from a tire machine. (GRRR, don’t ask)
I will say it was NOT swerve. He’s the jam.
Anyway, i think this mark is really hurting my sale. It’s not deep, maybe 1/32 at most. I wonder if it can just be polished up, without adding material. I feel like a little polishing would go a long way, but i’m not interested in really doing it alone…
someone needs to learn how to mount a tire!
I’m sure you can take a little material off the edge to hide it, but if someone is looking for it they will see it.
x…
All 4 wheels were marked up. that was the worst one, though.
Precisely why I bought my own machine.
Anything is fixable but, it may not be worth the cost.
yeah, i know you’ll be able to see it, but I’m not trying to scam someone and say they’re perfect, i just don’t want some big glaring imperfection. It’s the discoloration that makes it noticeable, not the shape of the damage.
They were over 800 dollars a wheel + shipping…
it should be fixable. the guy who did my fathers mustang rims(my dad uses curbs to park) did a flawless job. i got his number from west herr jaguar it was 30 a rim
im assuming that a metal head was used instead of plastic?
that really does suck though. good luck with the fix if possible
They do a lot of Porsche wheels(at least they used to years ago), if anyone can fix it they can.
can you get his number to me?
is it an insured business or just some guy?
had to be or he did not use anything to soften the blow of the prybar
He is insured. He comes to you.818-2210
Really? weird…
does he have a name?
i think its jim
I was picking up jag parts the one day. I saw him finishing a set of wheels on a x type. The wheels were cleaned with acid. he was painting them on the car. they looked flawless. he fixed my dads curb rash and it looks really good. this was done at kustom works?
uggh,i love those wheels.good luck newman
I would slay who ever did this to your rims.
+1, and I’m guessing the place that fugged them up wasn’t insured? from OP asking about insurance :(, sucks…
Um, they were insured, but they said that they didn’t do it and the rims were brought in like that, which they were not. But i have no way to prove it.
