Got a wheel repair quote, and here's some pics of my garage

[sandspeed]

I finally got around to taking the worst wheel out of a set down to Sacramento to get a quote for repair. The guy said the rim bolts are titanium and alone are like $220 per wheel, so I'm glad they are not messed up. He said somewhere around $180ish for this wheel and much less for the other three. So looks like I should be able to get these refurb'd for maybe $600, which would be awesome. I have a plan for the avant, and these will look sweet when they are done. They are ABT Sportsline A27s in 19x9" and offset of ET32. Here's a before pic:



You won't be getting any pics till the whole car is in a much different condition.
Here's a few pics of the garage too, with my old 3.0 up on jackstands being parted.








As you can see, I have a bit of a wheel problem. And I have a few bits and pieces waiting to be installed. Ok, bits and pieces may be an understatement.

What happened to the wheel? Or did you just buy them that way and planned to repair it?

I bought them this way and planned to repair them. I have a few other different sets that need a little work too.

I think that with all of the resources that you have, you could find a better wheel for the avant. Hey do you still have that black dash ?

[sandspeed]

I don't have unending resources, and I have a whole ABT setup going on. Some people don't like the style, and they can go die in a fire. I'm tired of the "USP rules" bullshit and I'll probably change the look a few months after I get it all finished. It's more about the process than the product really. And nope, the black dash was sold a while ago.

Im in elk grove and need some wheels repaired? who is repairing your wheels? Thanks

[sandspeed]

Precision Wheel Works on Albatross in Sac. They are a hole in the wall place, but the guy had some nice wheels in there and seems to know what he's talking about.

Nice garage pics! Chock full of nice pieces.

I'm looking forward to seeing your Avant w/ the complete Abt kit installed. I still have a soft spot for the Abt B6 body kit - it's not for everyone, admittedly, but, it can look really cool if done right. Don't listen to the haters.
