Boring, worn-out wheels can ruin the look and feel of your entire vehicle.
It’s normal for wheels to get dirty, damaged, or outdated over time. If you answer YES to ANY of these questions, your wheels could use some help.
- Do your wheels look mismatched with the rest of your car?
- Are there scrapes and scratches on your wheels that frustrate you?
- Is there corrosion on your wheels that you're afraid will only get worse?

You deserve to drive a car that you're proud of without having to spend a fortune.

Our Services

Powder Coating
Wheels can look dull and scratched over time. Powder coating gives your wheels a fresh look that can withstand the unforgiving Michigan road conditions. We can also powder coat any other metal parts on your vehicle.

Painting / Touch-ups
If you want to touch up your wheels or are looking for a very unique color, you can choose traditional wheel paint over powder to produce the look you want. This is sometimes required instead of powder for special aftermarket wheels.

Color Matching
A mismatched color can make a new paint job feel like a waste of money. We can accurately match your desired color to ensure you get the color you’re looking for.

Straightening / Welding
Bends, cracks, or other damage to your wheels can lead to costly problems and safety concerns with your vehicle. We can restore most damaged wheels back to their original look and feel to give you a smoother, safer ride.

Polishing & Machining
If you want to maintain the original styling of the raw aluminum on your wheels, we offer a machined or polished finish. Machining will produce more of a matte look while polishing includes a glossy clear coat.

New & Used Tires
If your tires often lose air or have less grip in wet conditions, it might be time to replace them. We can replace your tires during our process to save you time from having to go to a tire shop.
Lease Returns: We can restore the wheels on your lease before you return it so you can avoid hefty damage/repair fees.
What's Included?
- Free Inspection and Quote: You’ll know exactly what needs to be done and how long it will take without having to risk your money so you can make the right buying decision.
- Wheel Removal and Remounting: You can bring your car in as-is and we will remove your wheels for you so you don’t have to do any extra work.
- Paint Stripping: We remove all the old paint to ensure we have a clean surface before applying the new paint which means there will never be any signs of the old color.
- Sandblasting: We’ll remove any remaining residue before coating to create a smooth surface that will make your wheels look new.
- Touch-up and Repair: Deep scratches, dents, and bends will be corrected so you can restore their look and performance back to what they were originally.
- Wheel Rebalancing: We ensure each wheel is properly balanced before putting it back on the vehicle or giving it to you so you can experience the smoothest possible ride.
- Tire Replacement (optional): Get a new (or used) set of tires to complement your refinished wheel so you can save time not having to go to a tire shop afterward.
