They are not a wheel specialty shop per say - however they apparently do a lot of wheels and have the right gear. There really aren't enough folks around here to make a wheel repair speciality shop a going concern, so they job for several outfits in town in addition to their primary line custom building and bending sheet and rod. Cost of shipping is prohibitive otherwise (big country - not a lot of options). Very much appreciate the Wurth finishes lead - will follow up when they are done. Don't suppose anyone has colour codes for NG900 three spoke wheels?
