    2016 Durango after #1 wheel

    Second time going to Rim shine for curb rash. Did not disappoint. Due to the high humidity of the day the time promised was longer than expected. Would definitely recommend again.

    I brought my slightly curb-rashed pair of 20" AMG wheels to Sean and got them back a few days later, perfectly machined and repainted, looking like brand new! I couldn't be more pleased with not only the craftsmanship, but the man himself. Sean has a terrific, positive attitude and takes pride in his work. I've found my "wheel guy"!! Sean, you've earned my loyalty for life!

    This has to be my 5th or 6th visit to Rimshine over the last several years. I'm from Quincy and had originally done business with Alloy Wheel Repair. After a horrible experience with the owner, Sam Kramer ( the rudest businessman I have ever met) I found Rimshine. Initially I thought the owner Sean over does it with all his polite and respectful talk but after several years of going to him I've grown to know he is a genuine nice person. My first visit was to have my wheels repainted to correct the terrible job that Alloy wheels had done. Sean immediately recognized the flaw but despite me trying to get him to agree (or badmouth) that Alloy wheels was a terrible company, he would not go there. This is a sign of a good businessman. He simply said, "it's unfortunate they couldn't correct this...but I'll take care of it..." which he did for a more than reasonable price. Since then I've been back to his shop in Allston several times over the years. The other day he did a fantastic job refinishing 4 wheels on a 16 yr old Mercedes I had picked up for my daughter-in-law. They now look brand new. I should also say that despite my bias to do business with Sean I did this time decide to go to three other shops to get a price. Sometimes a business owner has the tendency to take advantage of loyal customers, charging them top dollar. To my satisfaction Sean's price was still lower than all the others, and unlike other shops that offer this service as an "ad-on" to their existing car repair business, Rimshine only repairs and restores wheels, nothing else. To sum this all up if you have damaged wheels (like we all eventually have) Rimshine will restore them to their original look for a fair price. Like me I think most people would prefer to go directly to their shop but for those that can't they do offer a pick-up and return service for removed wheels as well as offering an on-site service where his technician comes to your home or place of business and performs the work there. Lastly I believe Rimshine is the only company to give you a lifetime warranty on their work as long as you own the car. Something I discovered a few years ago when I returned to have a touch-up on one of my wheels where the paint was starting to chip. To my surprise Sean took care of it and when I asked how much I owed him, he replied "nothing, it was under warranty".

    Not clean (they arrived to me clean, this is a few days post my own detail) but still sparkling and perfect!) - A detailed view of a BMW alloy wheel featuring multiple spokes and the BMW emblem at the center.

    Sean is amazing and a dream to work with! He was able to take my car on short notice as I wanted him to work on my BMW while I was out of town for a week. I have a 435i BMW with 18" rims that have Machined and painted components to the Wheels that were curb damaged on three wheels. So I asked that he only do 3 of them. the price was right for the work! When I got the car back I was thrilled! they looked brand new and I wasn't sure it was possible as they rims are machined AND painted. I love how much the three looked I brought him the car again to do the other wheel with no curb rash because while that one had no damage the sparkle of of the other 3 made that one stick out! I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone that asks and go to him again in a heartbeat! THANKS SEAN!!!!!

    After

    On a hot day, with a stressed out mind and generally shaky driving skills, I curbed my rim big time. The crying sound my wheel made still makes me shiver. After viewing a few YouTube videos I decided it was best for me and my car to get professional help and made a few calls. Seems like the whole city's insiders know Shawn is the person you go to for rim repairs. I called and got a fair quote, and got the rim fixed in less than 24 hours - he even delivered the car to me as I was tied in work calls. The job was well done (see pictures), and the money was well spent on honest and professional work, and my peace of mind. Shawn was such a delight to work with that I felt my mood was even better than before the curbing incident. It was better than therapy!

    I was skeptical about the reviews but it seems that this business deserves it. They do great work and my wheels look new. Pricing was around $150 each but was worth it

    Saying the Sean provides extraordinary service is an understatement. From the first call to when I picked up my car, Sean was responsive, reasonable and just a cool guy for the following reasons: he let me negotiate the price, he sent an Uber to pick me up from work and then refinished a rim for free because it had damage that I hadn't even noticed! Thanks for taking care of me and my Tesla Model 3!

    Will let the photos speak for themselves. Seam at Rimshine LLC was a great help, pointed out that the rims had been done previously and the AMG machining had been removed (CPO vehicle). Had Sean bring back the machining, install new tires, balance and put back on the vehicle. Oh, all the service was done without the car leaving my garage. They put the car on jacks during the 3 days it took to complete the work.

    After - The image shows a car wheel with a black, shiny alloy rim and a tire mounted on it, parked on a paved surface.

    First I found them online saying that they offer free brakes check. I recently bought a used…read morevehicle from a dealership. It passed inspection. Every time I pressed on the brakes. I heard loud noise. I took my car to VIP for the "free brakes check". While I was explaining the situation to a man at the front desk. Leroy was also there. He stood up and gave me his business card and told me that he is the "super star"(so childish). Then he told me that there are "free" and "paid" brake checks. The free one is just a simple visual check. The paid one is just for them to look deeper. I said I just want the free brake check since the car passed inspection 2 weeks ago. After he looked at my brakes, he said everything was ok. He simply explained the health of the brakes to me once. I asked him if he could repeat one more time so I can write down the details. He refuses and said, "I only said it once". I was shocked for his attitude. I really don't like this type of customer service. He is just too lazy to do anything. Just sitting there and playing with his phone. Claimed to be the "super star". This is ridiculous! People need to grow up.

    I brought my car in to have the exhaust system repaired. Mike greeted me and got me checked in…read moreright away even though I didn't have an appointment. The system needed to be entirely replaced. The reason I trust that to be the truth is that he invited me into the garage to see the damage for myself - it was completely rusted. Throughout the progress of the work Mike and the mechanic, Leroy, were respectful and communicative the whole time. They told me what they were doing and how long it would probably take. They were able to get the necessary parts and complete the job the same day. I will be going back whenever I need more services on my car.
