Capital Original Wheels

Hey, does anyone know what happened to Leroy Chacon?

Sold my stock 2012 Subaru Impreza steel wheels for cash on the spot. Very helpful folks!

They are great! I needed one used wheel for my car and they had it in stock. I saved $$$ going to Capital instead of buying the wheel from the tire shop. When I arrived there they had it sitting in front waiting for me to pick up. Now that’s customer service! The gentleman that rang me up even helped me put it in my car.
I will definitely be coming back here for my wheel needs.

If you are looking for a wheel repair shop, this is the place.
I waited only an hour and paid $ 87.50 for my bent wheel today.

My story is pretty similar to John R’s. with the exception that I was going 70mph, on the 14. Damn semis have that freeway ripped to shreds, I should write a bad Unilocal review on it. Ok, technically it was my fault… i GUESS. Thats what i get for driving without my glasses, missed that damn pothole… Then again I guess I hit it spot on since the damn thing bent my wheel.
Being ever so frugal, but clearly not so careful, I did my homework and decided to go on my referral from Paul at Lexservice.
I read the reviews and realized I could have my wheel back that same day!!! That’s exciting stuff right there.
It was $ 85 for the simple repair and $ 150 for the polished finish. That would take 1−2days, which I can’t do. So they said they’d repair it and I could always come back later.
A big weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I have my car back, I received a great price, and got excellent service. And by excellent I don’t mean royal treatment. I just wasn’t treated like a chick. I hate when that happens.
I will be spreading the word of mouth and hopefully I never need their services again. Lesson learned!

I hit a pothole while going over 40 the other night, and my car started vibrating. Took my car to a local tireshop and they confirmed my suspicion — I had a bent wheel.
I spent a couple days calling around to tons of tire and wheel places. They all had the same story — it would take a couple days, and would cost me been $ 125-​$ 250. If I wanted it expedited, I had to bring it first thing in the morning, and pay an additional hefty fee to pull it ahead of other wheels. Most of the places I talked to had their wheels sent out somewhere. No one would tell me where, except one guy and that place had shut down.
I called Hiro auto repair near my place who had stellar Unilocal reviews, and who did an amazing job on my BMW brakes recently for about half the cost of competitors in the area. George over at Hiro’s told me he has a shop he deals with for bent wheels, and gave me the number for Capital wheels.
I called and talked to Angel at Capital wheels — he told me a completely different story than the rest: that he could get it done in about an hour if I brought it in during lunch, and that if it was as simple of a job as I described over the phone, it would be $ 75, plus $ 12.50 for mounting and balancing for a grand total of $ 87.50. I drove over immediately.
I needed to conduct some conference calls while I waited, so Angel told me the new McDonalds on the corner had free wifi, and they did, and it was great.
When I got back, Angel told me the bend was much worse than originally anticipated — it was «center bent» and not just bent along the rim, but from the center of where the lugnuts mount. I got worried, but he said he had a good man on it, and he was confident they could get it as close to perfect as possible. 20 minutes later he told me it was done, mounted and balanced.
I figured it would cost more because it was significantly more involved than initially anticipated. Nope — $ 87.50
I got to drive home without that horrible vibration, and I’ll be using these guys for all my wheel repairs going forward.
They get dinged 1 star for not having a vehicle lift to be able to check the other 3 wheels (I was concerned more than just the one wheel was damaged) and for not having a road force balancer (just a standard high speed balancer), but that won’t stop me from coming back.

These guys were very accommodating. I sent them the wheels from my 1984 Toyota Celica GTS, and they did a good job. The pricing was better than other quotes, the quality of work better than average, and although my wheels were not perfect, they did what it took to make me happy.
I would definitely use these guys again. Hands down.
I’m an enthusiast, and would not hesitate to send wheels from any of my other cars to these guys. Edgar was great.
You still can get good service to repair wheels that still have life in them. Thanks guys.

My experience with Capital Wheels was great a few years back when General Manager Clint I believe regarding wheel issues. He went far and above to resolve this issue I had and I left satisfied and appreciated. Was in recently and hardly recognized anybody in the office as I was looking for Clint. After waiting to speak with someone, everyone was wich seemed to be to busy to even acknowledge me, I grew impatient and left. On my way out I asked an employee if I could speak with Clint the General Manager and he looked at me strange wich made me definitely decide to never return.
Thanks guys for the great customer service!

Super friendly staff. Angel and Santiago hooked it up with the rim and are such sweethearts. Pancho did a great installation job, and it only took about 10 – 15 minutes. I would definitely go back for future rim needs :)
