I think I'm going to try these guys for my RPF1. I even looked into buying a machine to fix wheels...but 13k is out of my budget!

business name? Only asking because after reading online reviews of the 'hubcap and wheel store' I don't think I'll be doing business there. Still leaning towards the online guys unless I can find a local source.

Kinda thought that was self explanatory...I did some research on their reputation and didn't come up with many good things. Some of the negatives were pretty much unacceptable in my book.
