there is a guy in the southern tier who does this...
I believe he is out of Seneca falls..
I have his number somewhere..
he is the only authorized guy for Ferrari and Massarati in WNY..
we had a problem with the wheel on the QP and he did them

I dug at my local VDub site for a guy that was suggested there who does mobile wheel repair but couldn't find his info. "wheel" is a filtered search term so I'm not going to have much luck ::)

I see these guys all over the place. They come to you, which is nice. Never personally dealt with them though, so I'm not sure on pricing.
