+1 to Son Tran. Fixed my curb rash on my VMR Gunmetal wheels.

Did a great job!

I caught him at the WheelDude opening meet and greet.

If you can gather some people from the Bay Area with damage wheels, chances are he'll come to you. 10+ cars should make his trip north worthwhile.

mr_milo · 05-06-2013, 06:52 PM

I'd be in if he comes up. Hoping he does soon.

I'm in if he comes up to the Bay Area. Someone please pm if he does :-)

Anyone know the address of his shop in Westminster?

I think it is Beach Boulevard?

He doesn't have a shop because he's mobile. He does on site repairs at the former Super Autobacs parking lot in Stanton every Sunday, that's where you can easily get ahold of him.

If anyone can get his info too that would be greatly appreciated. Or if anyone knows when he goes to LTMW. Got a minor rash I need to take care of!

Maybe not a "shop".... he told me that he works Saturdays at a spot on Beach Blvd. but I goofed on the address. Looks like former Super Autobacs parking lot is the place.

Just stop by the old Super Autobacs parking lot and hit him up on Sundays.

Can someone post his contact information? I bought a set of VB3's with really bad curb rashes and a bend.

I've always been a loyal customer to Son and I just picked up these SE37K's for my MINI, so it was Son Tran to the rescue on this! Son probably doesn't get as much recognition for all the hard work he puts into fixing wheels, but to work on a Sunday on a last minute call is something that I really appreciate.

Son tran's work is unreal...nice wheels btw

Figure of speach. Not that it wouldn't happen, but he'd be hard pressed to get him up there again.

Totally expected that Son Tran could fix those w/o much hassles. Thanks for posting up the pictures of the repair!

Just gather a large group of cars for him to work on and I believe he'll plan a trip to the Bay Area soon.

KwlAznKid · 06-10-2013, 02:07 PM

do tires need to be off the wheels for him to work on them?
