Elite repaired and painted my BMW wheels, earning a AAA+ rating. Here's why. The wheels had curb rash, light corrosion and clearcoat paint crazing from a prior, inferior repaint job. Elite took them down to bare metal, repaired the curb rash and refinished them. The polished parts were restored to a high shine with CNC technology. They powder coated the rest of the wheels with a new color, then clear-coated them. They look fantastic. They were extremely easy to work with, start to finish. They did all this work in one day. All I did was drop the car off to them. The price for this high quality work was very fair. Give Elite a look before spending big bucks on replacement wheels.Bill DesormeauLoudonville, NY

While they got the wheel done quickly and were very nice- the work is some of the worst I have seen. Would have much rather waited a few more days and received a better repair on my cracked wheel. The weld has not been cleaned at all, the blend on the white is terrible and has poor coverage, there are scuff marks all inside the barrel where they used abrasive.Now I have to fix their fix . Cannot recommend work like this.

Had a rim with some finish damage. Arranged to drop it off on a Monday afternoon and pick it up next day before noon. Completed as promised, stripped and refinished, looking like brand new and matching the other 3. Pro service, no hassles and price was reasonable. They get my recommendation.

A friend of mine referred me to Elite Wheels a few months ago. I had been putting off getting my rims done for a while now and just recently found out that I had two bent rims thanks to the horrible road conditions in Albany. I dropped my car off at the end of the work day and my car and rims were ready in less than 24 hours. I can't say enough about the job that Elite Wheels did. The rims were absolutely perfect, my rims were straightened, and every single fine detail was put into the rim. I attached a before and after picture. The picture does not do it justice, because the way that these rims now shine and sparkle in the sun is just amazing. Compared to the cost of brand new rims, this is a no brainer to have your rims done here. I have a 7 year old car and now the entire car looks brand new because of the amazing job at Elite Wheels.

Excellent service, friendly staff. Those guys work all night in the back to get your rims back to better than brand new! My rims were a little chopped up from hitting a curb, I got all four rims powder coated with a high gloss and I also got my calipers painted and sketched. The rims and calipers look better than when I bought the car. They look absolutely amazing and for what you get, the price is very reasonable!

When I got my winter tires off, I was told that my right front rim was bent (must have hit a pot hole sometime during the winter). I got my summers on then made an appointment with Elite Wheels to get my rim fixed. I was told over the phone the price would be $205 after tax for a full rim repair. When I picked up my car the next day, the total was $221.40. Not a huge deal, but not what I was told. Two days later I noticed a big cut was punched into the sidewall of the tire that was worked on. When called about it, I was told "it's a $30,000 dollar machine, it wouldn't do that." Whether it was the machine or something else happened there, it's apparent that Elite Wheels is at fault. I am now paying almost double what I paid for the rim repair for a new tire/installation on top of the $221.40 for the repair. There was only about 3,000 miles on it. Fixed the rim but ruined the tire. No accountability whatsoever. Buyer beware.

Great job! So happy with the refurbishment job Elite of Albany did. I had a few wheels that had a decent amount of road rash and when I got them back the CNC-machined face looks good as new, can't even tell where the gouges were. Changed up the color as well. Very quick turnaround. Can honestly recommend to anyone needed their wheels re-done.

I just picked up my Tahoe from Elite on Wheels. My tires would not stay inflated and my rims were a disaster. I am very, very pleased with the work the staff did to make my wheels look new again and so far, my tires are completely round. Used to be flat on bottom. A few small blemishes but that was due to wheel age. Owner was more than gracious to warranty all the work they do. Very honest and reliable. No kidding, my truck felt like I was riding on air during my ride home. Wonderful ride on my newly refurbished wheels. My truck even handles better. Will do follow up call to further thank them for a job well done.! Very reasonable price as well!! I highly recommend this business!

Brought my aftermarket wheel there with a crack in it and had it back in my hands repaired in less than 24hrs. Everyone I interacted with had a positive and helpful demeanor.

Great experience with them, thought I wanted a matte black finish and seen some options of different blacks and decided with a semi-gloss black and love the way my truck wheels turned out, quick turn around time, will use them for all my powder coating needs/ wants :)

I ve had two vehicles done there, and they went above and beyond to make me happy with the end result !!i recently popped one of my tires I took it to the place where I purchased the tires since I had insurance. They told me they couldn t mount it due to it was an aftermarket rim .. which is wasn t at all ..I took it to these guys and they educated me and assured me it was perfectly fine to mount . I m a woman and they could ve easily told me whatever and charged me like crazy. They were honest and basically told me the other place didn t have any clue . I m very glad they didn t take advantage of me as a woman . Thank you so much!!!

Elite Wheels of Albany are absolutely top notch. They have now refinished two sets of vintage car rims for me, and I could not be happier. They ask all the right questions to give you the right result. They cover more detail that I had considered, which show their experience. They can be very busy, which is not surprising - so ask them, and if you're not in a hurry, you can schedule to drop off your rims during their slow season. - Art

My lease dings me the FULL price of a new wheel if there is any curb rash on any wheels. Elite made all 4 look brand new for less than what it would have cost me to replace 1! Fast, friendly service. The guy who inspected the car could not believe how beautiful and new they looked.

Recently had one of my rims straightened when I arrived home with it tried to clean up some over spray on face of rim I ended up doing much more harm than good to the face of the riml a few days went by then ended up returning with the rim They took the rim back no questions asked and redid the whole rim now looking better than new also had a brief opportunity to speak with a few of the employees that do the refinishing work all very respectful and hard working These guys are the real deal real business people they stand behind their work and hold their reputation at a high level I strongly recommend anyone looking to have there rims straightened or refinished to pay these a visit.Thank you again for the great work and was apleasure doing business with youGeorge Durant

The front desk lady was great when dealing with my 2019 Ram. I had curb rash and I was very nervous to get the 22 's serviced. Upon pick I noticed a small blemish that they took care of immediately. I'll be back again for sure!

I don't usually take the time out to write reviews on services I received but I wanted to take the time out to give kudos to Elite on Wheels as they went above and beyond when I needed my rim repaired. Will definitely use them again, if I ever need too!
