Default Well . . .

MotoPersona used to send wheels out to be refinished for $150 each. Wherever they sent them did a GREAT job (even on my Oettinger REs with a machined lip). Maybe Steve or someone else knows where they outsourced this work from.

Default $150 bucks a wheel? I was hoping for like. ..

$50 a wheel. That's what edge racing said it should be. Since I got the last set of tdr2-b's two are chipped (not all the way to the silver) and they said they'd refund 100 bucks so I could get them refinished. Am I getting jacked?

Default Good luck finding a place that'll do it that cheap.

Most on AW have paid between $90 - $150 per wheel. Also, it seems that most wheel repair shops charge a flat rate per wheel - regardless of how much or little damage the must repair.
