I need a genuine EF tickford rim to replace one I've got that has a very small ding on the edge. If anyone has one handy that's in nice condition and at a reasonible price, OR is willing to trade somewhat for the dinged rim (can be rolled back into shape), then please post here.
Thanks

Yeah, definately investigate getting it repaired. Try a company called Advance wheel repairs..... I used to work for a panel shop who used these guys and they are very good. If they cant repair it, they can replace it with a good 2nd hand (restored) one. Should cost a lot less than $300, thats a joke.

Well, no luck with Advanced alloy. Even though the damage is small, the paint is fractured which means the metal is fractured. And a quick test on the roller proved that.
I think I might sell my rim set and get a new set all together  : Thanks for the help guys!
