I would ask your Chevy dealer who they use to refinish wheels. I had a Benz in 2014 and the dealer had someone repair it. You could not tell it had curb rash and it was a painted wheel. Good luck!

I'm sure you have a wheel repair company somewhere in your area that would do a good job. Google "Wheel Repair".

I have the same issue. Apparently the previous owner was completely incapable of parking. Would love to see the pics when finished. Thanks!

I will post pics when I get this repair complete. I still cannot get this beauty out of the garage seen as mother nature can't make up her mind which season we are in up in Wisconsin!
