Default Precision Wheels in Sacramento

Beware of Precision Wheels in Sacramento on Albatross St. Cobra guys................

I had a cosmetically damaged edge on a BBS wheel on my Z3 BMW. I would have just bought another wheel if they were not genuine BBS’s. I took the wheel with me and asked if the wheel could be repaired to a “factory Look”. The response was “No Problem”. I told them that I was very particular and would buy another factory wheel if they could not repair it to an original finish which would perfectly match the other three wheels. Again, They said they could do it as they make this kind of repair every day.

A week later I picked up the wheel and immediately noticed it was severely grooved all the way around it. I was told that that’s the way they machine it. “This is not the factory finish”……or even close! They said that’s the best they could do unless I wanted to either spend more money for a redo, or pay to have the other three done like this one.

Reminding them they said it would be a factory finish for $275…NOT MORE MONEY didn’t seem to make a difference. They refused to even talk about it without me committing to pay AGAIN!!!

Please be careful in dealing with this business as there is no guarantee and it is my fault for trusting the business in the first place. Attached are photos of both rear wheels. Click on the photo to see the grooves. The wheel looks much worse in person than the photo.

Beware!
