Anyone know of any good places to bring 21" rims for repair in the SF bay area (preferably around peninsula)? I have 6 bent rims from pothole damage that I accumulated over 2 years. I figured I can fix and keep two to switch out in case it happens again so I don't have to buy new rims, and then the rest I can just repair and try to sell if anyone is interested.

Ouch that sucks.
I just had a rim fixed this morning...actually exchanged, but it was here in the Phoenix area. The shop is a Tesla certified shop apparently and they keep wheels on hand, so for $250.00 you can just exchange your wheel and be on your way in an hour.

Contact your service center for the info of their local wheel repair vendor. I had my CPO wheels refinished by whomever the Sunnyvale SC uses and they did a pretty good job.
There are always some options on Craigslist as well, although I'd probably go with a referral from my local SC first.
EDIT: You might get some more feedback if this thread was posted in the Northern California section too.
Or just by a refurbished on on ebay for $250:
TESLA MODEL S 21" 2012 2013 12 13 CHARCOAL FRONT FACTORY OEM WHEEL RIM 98727 | eBay
Many of these places will also buy your core for a $100 or so giving you an out of pocket expense of less than $200.

Many collision places send wheels here in Walnut Creek:
Rite-Way Wire & Wheel Specialists - Walnut Creek, CA
I had my 21s repair there once. Doesn't look like much from the storefront, but they do quality work.

So were your rims so damaged that they would not hold air, out of round like steering issues, or is this a cosmetic thing?
