Dependable Wheel Repair

Anyone have any experience with these guys? http://www.dependablewheel.com/
I am looking for a shop to have some curb rash repaired in/near Seattle.

Thoughts? Advice? Other options?

I actually went through Car Nutz in Bellevue and was pretty happy. Not too expensive and the problem was fixed. I think they used another shop, but I'm not sure who they are.

Yeah ask around, I'm sure you can get the people Car Nutz used and be happy, and probably pay a bit less.

I have a coworker that used them on his factory Audi 18's that he curbed during winter. They charged him about $200 to fix a folded lip on the wheel, sand and repaint. He was pretty happy over factory replacements @ $600/ea or something stupid.

I do need to call them tho, I have a bent wheel on the back at the moment.

One of my MR BBS wheels need some attention also. It's shown a couple of curbs some loving over the last year so I'm interested in hearing about some options also.

^foster wheel and dependable wheel were owned by the same family until foster closed down.

dependable wheel is good, but a bit costly. i recommend cascade wheel in lynnwood (i think it's in lynnwood/bothell area). my friend is **** when it comes to wheel condition, and he's been to dependable and cascade. he recommends cascade because it's cheaper for the same quality repair as dependable wheel. if money is not an issue than you should try northwest auto salon in seattle. a friend took his aston martin dbs wheel there and got it fixed for around $400.
