How to Get Your Rims Recoated
Rims are the inside portion of the wheel apparatus that a tire surrounds. While hubcaps come standard on most cars to cover this portion, rims are made for cosmetic appeal as well as performance. Rim scratches easily occur during daily driving. Scraping a curb or getting hit with rocks while driving can cause these scratches. Luckily, there are repair shops available that recoat your rims to make them look new again. AWRS Wheel Repair, Fix Rim and Wheel Technology are a few companies that recondition rims.
