Restore 77 snowflake wheels
« on: October 21, 2015, 07:10:49 PM »
Ok so I need to have a set of 77 15X7 snowflake wheels restored.  I am in Florida and would be willing to ship them, my question is where to,  I know people have had this done in the past I want them re-machined, blasted, painted and clear coated.  So i am soliciting info on where to get it done.

Thanks
Doug

Scroll down to the lower bottom of the page to see their Snowflake restoration service.
I have never used these guys (I plan on sandblasting my own) but I hear great things about them.

I sent mine to http://www.wheelfixit.com/. Great job and fast...I think it was a$110.00 per wheel and they did a beautiful job.

I have contacted Texas Trans am's and TA specialties in Florioda (since that is where I live).  Has anyone had any experience with either?

Thanks

Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately, I am currently working in Toronto and am unable to do any wheels.  I appreciate the plug though.  Good luck.
