    So I just bought a set of used wheels that have some curb rash and scratches. Anyone know a good shop that repairs wheels at a reasonable price? Most places charge about 125 a wheel. I'm just trying to look for the bargain.

    it should be fun project if you attempt to do it yourself

    you need : (4-6) brazing aluminum rods (20-30$) propane torch ,4 1/2" grinder ,

    -clean 1st with a brush , use dish detergent to clean, then wipe with acetone
    -rough/sharp service need to be flattened
    -preheat with the torch for about 90 sec. then bring the rod close to the area and apply more heat.
    -smooth service with the wheel
