Got my Konig's from the Rim Doctor. They mainly specialize in repairing and refinishing rims, but sell rims at an amazing price. At the time no one could price match these guys for the rims I got.

I know a place in TO that will repair and powdercoat for $150/rim. Hopefully that isn't for the whole rim, I just ahve a crack in one of the spokes.

I got my rim welded there and they did a f ass job......IF i knew it would turn out like that i would welded it my self.....Never again I will do business with Rim Doctor. The rim looked like shit..... At first they told me that the heat from the weld won't penetrate and damage it on the outside, but it did Big time. Than they wanted to charge me for repowder coating to original and you know you will never match it with the rest. So I had to powder coat all four rims.
