Question Wheel Repair in San Jose CA

It looks like there is a good wheel repair place in So. Cal. Are there any good ones in San Jose area? I ran into a pot hole last
weekend. It blew up one 245/45/18 Dunlop tire and knocked the AMG 8.5x18 Aero II wheel out of round. Thanks for the help.

Wheel repair in San Jose

I've seen a place advertised in the SJ Marcury News. It's called Acker Wheel (I'm reasonably sure that's the name) but don't know for sure if they repair wheels. I know that they carry factory-type wheels for sale. You could check it out with a phone call.

Wheel Shops in San Jose

After a lot of searching, I found two shops:

1. Wheels America in Union City: A chain store fixed rims for a flat fee of $109.
2. Wheel Techniques in Campell: A private shop quoted $175 for my rim.

When I was getting quotes at Wheel Techniques, I saw a few identical AMG wheels and some BMW rims. This gave me some confidence so I went with it. Since they are quite buzy, I'll get the wheel back next week. I'll post the result.
