Bend on Advan double lip, any repair shops that can fix?

zero2sixtyZ · 07-06-2021, 07:57 AM

Anyone know / have experience with a shop that can fix a bend on an Advan wheel with the double lip, RS specifically?

Willing to ship wheel out for repair. Sadly can't replace the wheel as it is discontinued.

I hear center caps would have prevented this.

Did you try calling Advan and see if they have shops they recommend?

How badly it's bent? You can always find a used wheel on eBay. Try that.

Not horrible. I can't always find a used wheel on ebay. RS' are hard to find with their age, and the 5x120 ones are even rarer.

I'm thinking of selling mine, Advan RS gunmetal 19" staggered. But I will sell the whole set.
I'm in the process of keeping my 328i instead of selling it and plan to mount 18" set from my other car to make it more practical to go to bad roads :-).
