Tru-Wheel

Mike was great, very friendly and provided excellent customer service! I had cracked my rim and needed an emergency fix. We called a few places but they all gave us high prices and told us it would be done in a day or so. We called True Wheel and Mike said they would be able to fix it same day and when we arrived, they completed the job in about an hour for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend this company and would come here again!

Had a noise coming from my front driver wheel.
Was referred to them by my mechanic.
It turned out my rim was fine it is a ball bearing that
was cracked. Can you believe they didn’t even
charge me for the labor of removing my two front
rims and checking them.
Okay, how awesome it that!
Thank you Tru Wheel you are a 5 star in my book.

Overall a great experience and fair pricing. I have custom painted black rims and I had damaged one of them beyond repair. So I ordered a new one and had it shipped to Tru-​Wheel so they could paint the rim the same color as the others. I was skeptical of them matching it perfectly, but he took one look and told me not to worry. Sure enough he did a perfect job and the wheel looks great!
My only complaint is that I had to stay on top of my own order as far as emailing him (He did not reply to) and calling him (He always answers), but that’s not enough to lower my star rating. Mike is fantastic and gets the job done well and fast. I highly recommend Tru-​Wheel.

Friendly and knowledgable owner… but I brought in my wheels for refinishing and painting in black. A price was agreed to, and I picked the wheels up 5 days later. They were thoroughly cleaned and evenly painted, but they were not refinished and remained pitted. I commented on the paint still being tacky to the touch and was told it would harden as it cured. Now a month later, the wheels are not on the car (nor have tires been mounted to them) and the paint has come off one section of one of the rims. They’ve been sitting! I could have Plasti-​Dipped them myself for $ 20. What a waste of $ 550.

Seriously couldn’t be happier with the attention to detail and quality of work that goes on at this shop. Mike is a great guy and has always taken care of anything I bring him. I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else.

i was looking for a place to refinish the alloys on my 89 dakota convertible. this is THE place to go. the wheels are alloy with painted areas. i know these wheels didn’t look this good new. every surface was refinished. almost too nice to put on the truck. amazing.

9-​21-​2015 my tire popped on the freeway, drove off Lankershim thinking this place fixes tires, but sadly they don’t. But mike still tried fixing my tire. What a nice person I appreciate your help! Recommend people to come get there rims fix here!!!

Mike is the best. Fair and square. Honest to goodness. I always use Truwheels for any type if rim repair.

Owning multi piece wheels requires maintenance. Mike is my go to guy when I have bends, cracks, or need to refinish my wheels. Hands down best service and quality at a reasonable price.

Mike’s the best. Real honest and stand up guy. Thanks for keeping my rims tru.

Super easy, in & out service. Great prices and workmanship. Staff is the ver help and honest. Very few shops left that won’t jerk you around and nickel and dime you.

Mike has been very helpful on my issue with my brother’s car wheel which is out of round. They did the repair while I waited. I strongly recommend tru wheel for your wheel repair needs.

I love Tru-​Wheel. My italian racing rims had heavy damage from over a decade of use. Road rash from curbing, dents from freeway debris, and mishandling by a carwasher who used a solvent that took the finish off and turned part of them black. I never thought they could be restored but Mike and his team are miracle workers. They restored the wheels to like they were brand new again. I’m very happy with their service. Thanks Mike!

Let me start by saying Mike at Tru-​Wheel runs the BEST wheel repair/​refinishing shop in SoCal. Quality, price, and attention to detail is far better than the competition out there. Not to mention he takes time to explain what is wrong, best option to fix, and happily answers every question you have.
I recently had a cracked wheel repaired at a local shop (NOT Tru-​Wheel) and it was the worst fix imaginable (weld was ok, but it looked terrible and the shop didn’t take the time to prep/​paint it). So I brought the repaired wheel and another cracked wheel for the same set to Mike at Tru-​Wheel and he made them look almost perfect. The weld looked great and he took the extra time to prep/​paint them to match the rest of the wheels. I was very happy with the end result!
Save yourself time and headache dealing with all these pop-​up wheel shops around SoCal and take your wheels to a true professional at Tru-​Wheel.
Just look at the before and after pics I posted and let them speak for themselves!

Tru-​Wheel refinished my chrome wheels to remedy slow leaks due to internal rim corrosion. Mike and his crew did a superb job. The shop is closed on the weekends, but Mike met me early Saturday morning and personally mounted my wheels. This is customer service above and beyond the call of duty. This company knows what they are doing, honest and puts the customer first. They are my first choice for wheel repair.

Had a cracked rim on my car and thought I would have to replace the rim. I heard about Tru-​Wheel through a friend and gave them a call. They got me right in, fixed the crack and got me back on the road in an hour. It was way less than buying a new wheel and way less than I thought it would be for the repair. Very professional, courteous and competent. Definitely the place to go for this kind of work.

I chose to have Tru-​Wheel refinish my wheels based on positive Unilocal reviews, discussions with several shops, and the recommendation of my highly-​regarded independent BMW mechanic who uses them. Mike Ramirez of Tru-​Wheel did an outstanding job refinishing my BMW Style 32 Hypersilver OEM wheels, which you’ll find in the photos. They came back looking like new, with nicely balanced depth and luster. The original finish is extremely difficult to replicate, as the lead-​based paint used is not available in the USA, so Tru-​Wheel has developed their own process, which seems to work amazingly well, and they look durable so far.
Mike was thoughtful and communicative in evaluating the original finish, explaining the process, and providing updates. The wheels were trued, which eliminated a mysterious vibration, so I guess that pothole I hit last winter was the problem. All the minor curb rash disappeared. Tires were remounted and balanced, and everything seems to be spinning perfectly. Their pricing was very reasonable. Overall, an excellent value. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend this shop for any wheel refinishing or repairs.

Mike does great work, Dropped off four BBS RC wheels that were peeling from the clear coat. Additionally the center caps needed some attention. $ 450 to repaint the wheels. Excellent job. Would use again. Additionally Mike has been in the business for, I believe, 35 years. He knows what he is doing.

If you want your wheel repaired properly, this is your shop. I had a damaged wheel that needed repair. I brought the wheel in and Mike had me fixed and ready to go in no time.

I went to Tru-​Wheel after looking on Unilocal for the best wheel restoration shop in the L.A. area. The 5 star rating is completely accurate. Mike treated me with respect and answered all my questions. The final results were way better than I had expected. My ’71 Honda Z600 Pos-​A-​Traction aluminum mags were severely corroded and the paint had complete worn off. They now look as good as new and I can’t wait to get them on my car.
