I have the same question. I have 2 Spoon/Desmond rims that have very small rash around the lip and i hate it. But my rims are mint green so im not sure if it is repairable without messing up the color. And i wouldnt mind just polishing the lip either if I had to.

I believe there's a place in Maryland called the wheel doctor or something like that .If its just curb rash then what they do is grind it down and smooth it out .Painted wheels would have to be re-painted (duh) unless like mentioned above you want to polish the lips .if the wheels are bent it isnt going to matter where you take them there is no FIX .
