Anyone know of or recommend a place to get an original speedline C5Z06 wheel straightened or repaired? I have one that is bent on the lip and a little on the barrel of the wheel. I am in the Chattanooga TN area. Thanks. Jerry

You looking for someone local or out of state .

Prefer local. Actually just want someone that does it well. It is for a race car. I heard some actually pay for some or all the shipping. Jerry

I'd recommend Wheel Collision Center in Bath, PA. I've used them for years for both forged, cast, and 3-piece rims. They do an excellent job; and the rim always looks brand new when they return it. I also appreciate the fact that their repairs always have zero run out when I check the returned rim.

For stictly cosmetic repairs, I've tried "FixRim" franchises and had varying results depending upon the expertise of the individuals working on the rim. YMMV.

You didn't say what type of racing you were going to use the repaired rim for, so I'd recommend x-raying the rim first prior to having it repaired to see if the original damage to the rim also created any hairline cracks particularly in the spokes.

Good luck!
