Can any recommend a shop for wheels and suspension work in the Portland area? Thanks

You and I always seem to be doing the same things at the same time.

For my coilover installation im going to get quotes from AR Racing in Lake Oswego, Pacific Motorsports on the eastside, and Rasmussen.

I've heard great things about Skip's Wheel Werks in Beaverton, I assume your just looking for someone to mount custom wheels on tires without damaging them?

I'll probably just go to Rasmussen for this too though. Maybe we can get a discounted rate for doing suspension at the same time???

Haha, small world. I need to install a front sway bar... should be quick. But I'm also curious about exhaust work and wheels. An all-in-one shop would be great, sort of like Car Nutz up in Bellevue, WA.

Rasmussen is a pretty safe bet... they're very accomodating, however, I doubt they'll give us a discount

I also don't think they'll be too open to installing a lot of the after-market stuff I'm hoping to put on.

We do aftermarket installs all the time! You won't find a more qualified group of techs anywhere else.

How are you enjoying your 1er?

He hates it, not yellow enough and too slow.

Hmm, I have some parts I want to install but Pete at Rasmussen (also a great guy) quoted me some large numbers for the installs (almost 2x what I think it should cost... $110 for a front sway bar). Looks like Plus One Motorsports went out a business a while back down here in John's Landing as well... which is a shame because I literaly live across the street on Macadam and JUST noticed!

Well let me know who ends up doing your work. Coilovers are sitting in my garage waiting to be installed once the rest of the load comes in.
