Wheel Repair?

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good wheel repair shop? I have some 3 piece rims that I want to get re-barreled and refinished or have the bends removed and refinished. Ideally I would like to rebarrel these rims to match the rears and have a square setup

I tried to photograph the damages as best as I could.
Thanks,
-Greg

Try wheel flip in Whittier. I've only heard good things about them. Price MAY be on the high side but they do good work.

Threepiece.us is also an option, but they don't want to touch a anything that's not true 3 piece

I had my wheels re-barreled at Wheel Flip, and had an.. alright experience.
The communication was not great but the wheels got finished eventually at a reasonable price.

probably out of your way, but I usually use velvet touch wheel services in escondido.
Did a real good job on my wheels a few months ago when one of them bent bad.

I've gone to onsite for a paint match & refinishing after I curb rashed my wheel.
My friends with baller wheels go to vrwheels to rebarrel theirs.
