    as i understand from the highlighted words that the paint ll gone due to heat....and i think its ok to re-paint the rims, but if the guy working in the back side of the rims..then no need to worry about the color/paint...:)

      glad to see you have a sense of humor. with regards to the discoloration that is normal. Most metals will form some sort of discoloration when exposed to a direct and high intensity heat source such as that used to repair your wheel. The solution is to repaint the wheel. If the wheel has a polished as opposed to painted finish you're pretty much sh1t out of luck; i doubt you can do anything to remove this discoloration.

              Update - the rims have been repaied and fixed on the car... I am quite satisfied with the result considering the amount of damage on the rims... pre & post piks will be posted over the weekend

              However, the shaking issue i had hoped will be resolved by this has not. It has definitely reduced by over 80% but it has not been completely eradicated, which has gotten me worried if there is some other problem. Earlier it was the entire car shaking between 100-120kph, but now it can be felt only close to the feet. What do you guys think?
