    I bought a used car with curb rash and decided to work with Cal Wheel Technology based on its great reviews. Cory responded to my Yelp message very quickly. The wheels were repaired, painted, mounted, and balanced for a total of $900. When I noticed a small paint issue at pickup, they were able to fix it the following day. I'm very happy with the final results and will be a returning customer :)

    They repaired and repainted my wheel. Now, it looks like new!

    Go to Cal Wheel Technology if you need to have your wheels repaired and repainted to look like new.

    Andrew powder coated my son's e-bike frame. Wonderful job! I'll just post before and after pictures -- it speaks for itself.

    Wow I can't believe all the good reviews here. My experience was total opposite. I came here because of all the rave reviews of what a great job these guys are with the wheels. I came in with an appointment to get my wheels powder coated. The owner Corey promised me the job will get done by end of the day, so I arrived and looked at the rims, immediately I noticed a lot of black dots, pinholes, and dimples. I told the tech that worked on it and he brushed me off saying I just need to come back next time and he'll fix it. I said ok and prepared to pay; the other guy tells me that if I paid with card there's a 4% fee, cannot believe this and made me pay by Venmo. I got no receipt for the job that was done. I pinged Corey the owner afterwards about the poor job that was done on my rims and he didn't get back to me in two days until I pressed him on it and blamed it on the color I chose and the "3 foot rule ", that if we don't see it from 3 feet, the job is perfect. Wrong, the shop did a dirty job of not doing good prep work and a terrible job with powder coating my wheels. There was overspray and basically not doing a good job of stripping the original paint. Do not come here, these guys did a lousy job and was in a hurry to get the hell out of. The owner was defensive and just bad manners; he gave me a cheap write up receipt that was not legal.

    Highly recommend Cory and his team! They were absolutely fantastic to work with--very fair pricing, responsive, professional, and efficient. As a woman, I'll admit that going into a car shop can sometimes feel uncomfortable because you worry about being taken advantage of, but these guys made me feel so welcome and comfortable from the start. They were honest, helpful, and made the whole experience easy and stress-free. I'm SO happy I chose them to do my rims! I couldn't be happier with the results. Definitely recommend them!

    My own hubris led me to scrape one of my wheels when pulling out of a narrow garage yesterday, and I contacted Cal Wheel Technology for the repair. They provided a quote based on the picture I took right after "the incident" and took my car in this morning for repairs. I worked with Andrew, who helped me feel at ease about the extent of the work, and he estimated it would take about an hour. Now, my wheel looks like new again! They also offer the same services for dealerships in the area, so you might as well pay this team directly for the same high-quality work without the markup.

    Cory and his team saves the day again! For the price and the speed. Good value. Texted him on Friday for his wheel repair service and he was able to accommodate me next day. Definitely will come to him again if I ever curb my wheel again. Hopefully not lol.

    After many years of teasing my wife about the curb rash on her wheels it finally happened to me and "the curb hit my wheels." I didn't have high hopes that this could be repaired and even considered upgrading my wheels before my friends noticed this rookie move. I took it to Cory and his shop did an amazing job. I was going to take an "after" picture cropped in on the repair but I honestly couldn't find the spot even in the bright sun. The service was friendly and the work was done while I waited. They power washed the wheel and the price was very reasonable as well. I don't write many Yelp reviews but this definitely deserves 5 stars.

    Upgrade the rim color to black

    Thank you Jose for job well done on my powder coat rims. Love it so much. It's was a fast process and my rims looks perfect. Thank you Corey for responding so quickly with all questions . I highly recommend Cal Wheel for anyone who's interested in getting their rim fixed or painted.

    I would give more stars if I could. Cory and Jose at Cal Wheel Technology are top tier. Jose repaired my wheel in under 2-3 hours and I could not tell where the wheel was damaged in the first place! The paint match was 100% accurate and I couldn't be happier - it's as if it didn't even happen. Hopefully I don't get curb rash again, but I do, I know I'm coming back here.

    Corey has once again proven his expertise. I had a brain fart while backing up my Tesla Model 3 Performance and ended up with a long gash on the wheel. I promptly reached out to Corey and sent him a picture of the damage. He responded without hesitation, assuring me that it wouldn't be a problem. He suggested that I bring the wheel in the morning, and he would be able to fix it in the afternoon. Just like that I am back wheeling. Corey and his crew are the best!

    Thanks for a good service at Cal Wheel. Always trusting you guys. Thanks for the shirt as well

    Ask the Community - Cal Wheel Technology

    How does a repaired rim wear? Do you have to be more careful than with the original wheel?

    I would recommend treating it the same way as a factory finished wheel. Soap and water for cleaning, no “wheel cleaners” as they contain very harsh chemicals that will degrade any finish, and use automatic drive through car washes at your own risk.… 

    Can you modify wheel offsets, want to go from +30mm to +35mm?

    We can do it with a spacer.

    Do you powder coat motorcycle frames?

    Yes we do.

    Do u paint break calipers? Can I get blk lung nuts for all four rims?

    Yes we do paint brake calipers. We can order you lug nuts as well. Please feel free to call or text… 

    Hello i have a 2011 gmc canyon and I'm looking to switch the wheels from 2016 gmc wheels to the 2011 but I wanted to ask for an estimate either spacers or wheel adapter?

    You can use an adapter to convert the bolt pattern which will space it out about 1.5 inches. The cost for spacers and install will be $250. Please feel free to call or text to schedule an appointment.… 

    Do you repair bent rims?

    Yes we do! Please feel free to call or text to schedule an appointment.

    What is best way to contact? Over the past couple of months, I've tried calling (left a voicemail), direct email, and now I've requested a quote through Yelp, but I've not received a response.

    Please feel free to send a text to schedule an appointment. (650) 649-8058

    Do you fix lug nuts hole fill/drill new pattern?

    No we don’t offer that service.

    Do you powdercoat wheels also or just paint?

    Do you fix crack alloy rim?

    Yes we do. In fact we frequently repair other shop’s poor repairs on cracked wheels!

    Hello, do you have Pirelli P zero 275/35 ZR19 ( 100Y) tire in stock?

    No, we do not sell tires.

    Does he/she have a shop, or is it a mobile service business?

    Hi Anthony, we do offer mobile service around the Redwood City, San Carlos, and Belmont areas. Otherwise, you can come to our shop. Please call ahead as we are by appointment only!… 

    Does anyone know if this company is still in business? I'd like to contact them as I'm in need of repair on one of my rims.?

    We are definitely still in business! Covid didn’t get us ;)

    Cory fixed the rash, repainted the outer surface of each rim to basically match the factory finish.

    I made an afternoon appointment and arrived 15 minutes early. When I checked in, I was told by an…read moreolder, round-around-the-middle employee (Sal?) that they "didn't have time" to do the alignment on my vehicle. I was frustrated -- I had just driven 25 miles (about 30 minutes) specifically for this appointment. If a scheduled service can't be honored, customers should be notified before they make the trip. What made it worse was the complete lack of concern or effort to help resolve the situation. I walked out fully intending to call corporate and leave a negative review -- but then something changed. Another employee, Brandon Pascacio, noticed what happened and literally came after me in the parking lot to ask how he could help. I explained that I simply needed the alignment I had scheduled. Brandon asked me to come back inside and assured me they would take care of it. Because of Brandon's professionalism and customer service, Wheel Works ended up earning nearly $1,000 in business from me, including an alignment-for-life package, new tires, and additional repairs. He completely turned the experience around and is the reason this review isn't one star. From my understanding, the employee who initially turned me away was the manager or acting manager. If that's the case, Wheel Works seriously needs to reevaluate who is leading this location. Poor customer service and dismissive attitudes are exactly why businesses lose customers and damage their reputation. Brandon, on the other hand, is the kind of employee who builds loyalty and keeps customers coming back. The only reason this review is four stars instead of one or two is because Brandon stepped in and completely changed the experience. Without him, Wheel Works would have lost both my business and any future recommendations from me. Update: If you're looking for Brandon, he's moved to the San Mateo location on El Camino.

They performed a detailed pre-purchase inspection on a used SUV we were considering. The team answered all our wide-ranging questions clearly and confidently. Most importantly, they identified the specific minor issue behind a vague Carfax "damage report" that had no details. For the level of expertise and thoroughness, the price was extremely reasonable. We left feeling informed and confident in our decision. Highly recommended for all of your auto needs.
