Refurbishing RIMS in PJ or Penang.

[sillycarx]

Hey Guys...I'm looking for a shop who can help me refurbish my RIMs in either PJ area or in Penang. My rims are a little scratched up and wanted to get them refurbished!

Try Goh Swee Hin Tyre Shop at Prangin Rd or Dato Keramat.

They can arrange for your rims to be recond/resprayed for about RM100+ per rim.

Hi guys,

How do could we find out if second hand rims are bent? thanks

I believe most tyre shops send rims to 3rd party vendors for refurbishment but they are able to loan you spare rims. So just make sure the price includes loaning you a set of rims. I have done rim refurbishment at Sunny Carcare in New Taman SEA, PJ and the rims came back like new. Price will depends on the size and whether it's a straight forward respray or whether more work is needed to rectify any dents.

Here is a rim that came back like new :

That looks good, how much do they charge?

So far, the other place I always hear about is Heap Soon in Segambut, just behind the AB there.

Hmmn.... trick question..

What about putting them on the alignment machine and spin them? That's how I check the bicycle wheel for bents..

I do understand about respraying rims, but recond? Are they safe in the first place?

i have to look trough my receipts to get the address. i,ll post it later. shop's name is speed alloy. i ve never done any recond or refurbish. i went there for custom made hub centric rings. but it is one of the most popular shop in the northern region.( that's what i heard). but once there u can peek into their workshop and observe the displayed recond rims and decide for yourself. pay a visit.

cheers
