California Wheels

Colton Kocher

In the past I brought some recentered H1 wheels with some 3/8 rock rings in for balancing. It took a ton of weight, but they were able to make the truck smooth as fast as I was willing to take it. I recently brought some Icon beadlocks in and they were able to mount tires up to all 6 and there was zero issues. When I show up with something wildly out of balance or a new kind of beadlock it's a nice that they'll tackle it, other places will just plain refuse.

This is an honest review I have already provided via email to the shop: """ I recently had two services (window tinting and brake caliper painting) on my black Mustang convertible done at Caliwheels in Campbell, and I want to provide honest feedback directly to you. First red flag, we agreed on the prices over the phone, but once I came to pick up my car, tinting was charged $100 more than agreed upon. I asked about it and it was corrected, but I did not get an apology, rather it felt like I haggled, and it felt uncomfortable. Next, over the course of a week, I noticed that the tint was poorly done (a lot of small bubbles, and quite a few big lints stuck between window and foil). Both rear brake calipers have chipped, and there was overspray on my entire car from the caliper painting. I have spent a few hours with a clay bar trying to clean up the overspray, but it turned out to require more effort than that. Needless to say, I was shocked about the level of negligence you had when servicing my car. I went back to your store (I was told I can come in if not satisfied, no need to call in), and was told to come back in a week, because there was no staff to fix my issues. Again, no apology, rather I left from there like I was somehow at fault. I came back, and went through everything that needed to be fixed on my car. I was assured it will be. When I picked up the car again, the tint was in a much better state, though far from perfect, noticeably worse than what I have seen done on my friend's cars in other places. I am trying to be fair, so if there is something on my car that prevents it from being done properly, I would have appreciated to be told in advance. Chip on one of my breaks was poorly fixed (you can see that it was patched up), and completely ignored on the other one. In the meantime, one of the front brakes also chipped. I can tell that the breaks were not cleaned properly before painting, and I am very disappointed. Finally, the overspray was fortunately cleaned and removed very well, though it should not have been there in the first place. All in all, your services are priced very highly, while delivering subpar quality, or worse. Moreover, the time I have spent going back and forth with issues (plus cleaning that I tried to do myself) has cost me more than the cost of your services, and I decided that it is cheaper for me to not come back again, but find another workshop to resolve them. I had plans on buying new wheels and tires at your shop, but I changed my mind, for obvious reasons. """

California Wheels does excellent work.They recently mounted and balanced five new Pirelli Cinturato P1 tires on vintage BWA alloy wheels for my Alfa Romeo. Their staff is professional and courteous. Scott did a really fantastic job in balancing the tires and wheels. The car now rides as smooth as glass all the way up to speed. As a long time repeat customer, I highly recommend California Wheels for all your wheel and tire needs.AAA+++++
