I am looking for a place that I can get my rim repair. Any good recommendation for a shop in the Greater Toronto area or in Mississaga. Thanks.

Just an FYI for you with respect to repairing automotive wheel assemblies.

If the rim is not forged / billet, and simply pressed, or stamped. If the damage is more than cosmetic and the structual integrity of the rim is out of round.

Insure that you have the rim tested for stress cracks by a trusted source.

Because anytime a *Coke Can* rim is brought back from an out of round state, the material often times cracks.

Remember, what is the only thing holding your vehicle up, and helping you to stop.
