Close up of damage
Byron B.

Tuesday morning started out normal. We woke up early, fed the cats, ate breakfast, and loaded up our gear into the Red Panda. You see the kiddo, and I are what you would call Superhero's. You may know me as Lunchbox. I can pretty much eat anything. She is known as Fire Girl, both for her temper and the ability to control the element associated with her name. Unfortunately, our secret identities must have been compromised. Fire Girl was the first one to make the tail who was following us. "Lunchbox look out" While I was able to ditch the first car, I was almost sideswiped by the second car that was barreling down on us. I yanked the parking brake, veered hard to the right, and pulled The Red Panda onto two wheels. It was my last-ditch effort to avoid being hit. Alas, while Fire Girl and I escaped unharmed my poor Red Panda suffered quite the injury to her right rear rim. On Wednesday, I contacted Dr. Wheel. In minutes Samantha was texting me. She asked for my contact information and pictures of the damage so that she could provide a quote for me. Once she provided the quote, she asked for a deposit to secure the appointment. On Thursday, Esteban arrived early to his appointment. When I went outside, I was greeted with a smile. He asked me if I had any questions. I was concerned about overspray. But he explained that he uses an airbrush that is very precise and has never had complaints about overspray. Once I saw his gear It made more sense to me, and I was very confident in his skills. All of this deserves five stars. However, I hear that they also donate food to the needy. Like Esteban said before he drove off. I hope I never have to see them again. But If I do have an issue with curb rash again. I will without a doubt come back to Dr Wheel. Easy to deal with, quality work, and even more important Dr. Wheel values my time.

This is for the mobile wheel repair service I received in September 2025. The service and prompt response is commendable. The price is fair and it was done within 30 minutes. The repair work looks like it was almost brand new.

Again Dr Wheel repair came to rescue. Andrew Fixed the curb rash in no time, Pretty close to original finish , from far away you won't be able to tell repair was done, even at close up unless you know where to look at otherwise most people still can't tell repair was done. This is the third time I used their service, highly recommended.

They showed up on time and did a great job. I had three wheels repaired mostly light scrapes but here's are before and after pics of the worst damaged wheel.

Contacted Dr. Wheel on Yelp to fix some curb rash on my brand new car. I sent pictures and was given a quote I was happy with. We agreed upon a 2 hour window on a day that was convenient for me. Ivan was the person who came to my house. He was on time and got to work right away. Finished the wheel in a little less than an hour. Easy scheduling. Although its not like original, the damage on my wheel is now indiscernible so I'm happy with it.

I bought a new Ram truck.. My rims are chrome 20 inch? But I want them black. What is the cost to paint them?

Unfortunately we don't work with chrome at all since that is a chemical process. We can not paint over chrome since paint will not permanently adhere to chrome.

Do you guys repair bent or cracked wheels?

We get asked this question A LOT! Unfortunately though, we do not. We repair cosmetic surface damage like scratches, otherwise known as "curb rash". Since we are completely mobile, we only do wheel painting. You would probably need to take it into a… Read more

Timothy from Floyd Mobile Auto Touch-Up did a fantastic job fixing the curb rash on my rims…read more Communication was great from the start, he showed up right on time, and the whole process was smooth and easy. He got right to work and when he finished, my wheels honestly looked like new again. You'd never know there was damage there before. Professional, punctual, and great quality work. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend.

Disappointing results, poor communication, and a failed warranty…read more ​I want to start by saying I don't expect perfection. However, I do expect a repair to be comparable to other curb rash repairs I've had in the past. Because my wheel only had a mild case of rash, I decided to try a mobile service this time instead of my usual dedicated wheel shop. ​Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing from the start. Communication was poor; our first appointment fell through entirely, despite me confirming the time and providing the location via Yelp. When he finally did show up, he tried to charge me more than the agreed-upon price and I had to show him our message history just to verify it. While he managed to get the job done, the actual repair work speaks for itself (see photos). As you can see in the "before" picture, the damage was minimal. In the "after" picture, the original rash was replaced with a rough patch that actually extended to the inner edge; an area that wasn't even damaged initially. Further down the rim, there was a visible dust nib and a glob of paint on a previously perfect section. ​When I immediately pointed out these flaws, the technician was very dismissive. However, he eventually scheduled me for a touch-up/repaint to address my complaints, but then completely ghosted me. To top it all off, the repair lacked any real durability; despite being promised a one-year warranty against chipping and bubbling, the paint chipped on its own just a few weeks later. ​I am unsatisfied with this service to say the least. If you want quality results that last, I highly recommend bypassing this mobile service and taking your business to a dedicated wheel repair shop.

Found this place on yelp and read all the positive 5 star reviews so a visit was deemed necessary…read moreto inquire about my bent rim, thanks to the potholes on foothill Eric greeted me and we talked about options and pricing for repairing the one rim. I could tell right away he was passionate about his work and definitely puts customers first by how he was explaining everything in detail so I decided lets get all the wheels done while I'm here anyways I was stuck on a "charcoal" grey-ish color for rims, he advised that the past couple grey rims hes done the customers didn't like the way the look, but he knew I was stuck on the grey theme so he took couple example rims out and put them in front of my rims to give me an idea of how they would turn out, definitely going the extra mile for the customer in my book. all said and done I picked my color shade and he said it would be done thursday, this was from me dropping the car off tuesday morning at 8am. Eric gives me a call Wednesday 3pm and told me it was done and ready for pick up. I was like already? I was thinking to myself, wondering if he rushed it and move on to the next car being hes one day early. When I saw my car and how the color came out, I had the biggest smile on my face haha. The rims look literally brand new, there was no scuffs, scratches, curb rashes or any kind, there was no hint that work had been performed on the wheels everything was perfect and quite unbelievably. I was one happy camper, If your someone looking to get your wheels repaired and pick places by their reviews and rating I hope my review gives you motivation to give this shop a visit. Highly recommended -pictures to be uploaded tomorrow when the sun comes back up

Other reviews say they used this place and it was good - maybe something changed? Either way yelp, please update this listing so that it is not retail but wholesale only so others don't go through what I did today.
