I need a wheel repair place for one of our customers.

I can not think of the name of the place that does this but I know they have a few locations throughout the country.

Can anyone help me with the name of the place?

Marty, How about Metro wheels on South Cobb Drive.

I think Bill Bandy had one of his MM wheels redone and was happy with result

Weldcraft has a lot of experience with Marauder wheels

It is a customer wheel, not a Marauder wheel.

It's still a wheel, isn't it?

My understanding was that Weldcraft did wheel widening, not repair and polishing. I believe that is what they have done on the Marauder wheels.

They used to do coating/polishing but at the time I sent mine in to be powder coated (clear) their guy quit, right between when I sent in the fronts and the rears (had two boxes and did them one pair at a time over winter)

The fronts look great. The rears have the clear coat flaking off all over the place. IIRC this was two or even three years ago. Not sure if they went back into the finishing business, but I'd look elsewhere for coating or polishing.
