Jon=2C your idea of purchasing the machine might not be a bad idea.  I chec=
ked with a company today and they told me it would be a minimum of $100-$15=
0.  I can purchase new alloy wheels at that price.  I've a line on five ori=
ginal wheels that will cost me about the same.  Probably go that direction.

Thanks Gary. Pyles it is. Maybe we should ask to buy their jig and tooling =
and go start a small business or at least take some pictures of their equip=
ment and go duplicate it for our own use :)

On 300 West around 2800 South on the west side of the street is an alignmen=

 me $90 instead of $180 charged by BMW Murray for the same people to do the=

 my MG TD wheels to them. They told me they were looking for somebody who k=

Has anyone had any experience with a steel wheel repair company in the SLC =
area.  I have a slightly bent steel wheel and would like to get it "trued."
