Wheel Specialist Inc. Tempe AZ

Looking for a shop to refinish my style 42 wheels. What is offered in Tucson is not impressive so I found Wheel Specialist Inc. in Tempe. From their ad, they sell as well as repair wheels at their business. Has anyone done business with them? TIA!

I have not, but thanks for doing the leg work. I would drive over and check them out, ask for referrals etc.

It is far enough way plus not an area I go to, hence trying to get feedback here. Besides it is north of where I live & it is likely colder! My other option is to contact the local chapter of the BMWCCA & see if anyone has had any business with them.

They do a lot of dealer wheel repairs.

Thank you for the suggestion but I am searching for something of better quality. This type of service is available in the Tucson area. They may do good work but quick turn around is not something I need. For a wheel to be stripped, trued if needed & refinished, it takes time if it is to be a quality job. There have been a proliferation of wheel repair services that do dealership work & I am curious as to how these quick repairs will look five years from now.

Sorry, didn't realize you were looking for total restoration. Yes, Wheel Specialists is highly recommended. They just did a set of wheels for a friends streetrod and they are gorgeous! They were also quite expensive!

I'm local and I've heard of these guys.. VERY good reputation. If I ever get mine redone, it would definitely be here. Go for it!

The news is encouraging! I have had wheels refinished a couple of times over the years with my last infatuation which was with Saabs. I was living in the Midwest then. BBS OEM finish does not hold up very well. I had a set of BBS RKII's redone & painfully aware of the cost. The refinishing of the mentioned wheels got rolling when one of the tyres had an unrepairable puncture. That nail ended up costing me about $1800.00 by the time all was said & done! But the wheels (& the car) looked fantastic.
