Established Rim Repair Shop needs New Owner/ Operator
Business Description
Priced to sell quickly at just 0.9x - 1.4x SDE ! One Year ROI !
After nine years in business, Charlie’s Rim Repair is being offered as an asset acquisition including specialized equipment, brand goodwill, an established customer and referral base, and transition support. The seller is relocating and is prioritizing a straightforward transfer to new ownership.
Established 2017 — 9 years of operating history in the Central Valley.
Charlie’s Rim Repair combines specialized wheel-repair machinery with an established regional reputation. The shop serves direct customers as well as tire shops and dealerships, with a customer and referral base extending roughly 80 miles across the Central Valley.
An established base, with room to grow. Current ownership has focused on stabilizing and operating the existing business rather than expanding it. Opportunities such as Saturday hours, tire mounting, pickup/drop-off service, additional dealership and fleet relationships, and mobile cosmetic work have not been fully developed. For a buyer with existing automotive operations, technicians, equipment, or customer relationships, Charlie’s may also provide an opportunity to add specialized wheel-repair capabilities to an existing business rather than building them from scratch.
Only provider of specialized rim services and full refurbishing in the Central Valley - offering machining/ truing, eccentric boring, CNC resurfacing, hydraulic straightening, crack welding, and cosmetic repairs such as curb rash refinishing, painting, and polishing.
282 Reviews (4.9 Stars) on Google and Yelp, plus Facebook, Instagram, and the established website all transfer to the new owner. Nine years of organic trust-building and internet presence included.
The business has maintained its current revenue level without pursuing expansion. Several straightforward avenues remain available to a new owner, particularly one already operating in automotive services.
Ideal Owners:
+ Owner-operator wanting to run the business themselves in a niche with limited competition
+ Auto services operator such as a tire shop or body shop looking to add a specialty service to an existing operation.
+ Skilled technician ready to own their own shop with all equipment already in place.
+ Asset investor acquiring $100K in hard assets at below-replacement cost, with an operational business attached.
SDE $125k as solo operator, $78k with employee. Monthly Operating Expenses ~$2500 includes $1250 rent.
The business is being offered as an asset acquisition. The seller is relocating and is prepared to work toward an efficient transition with a qualified buyer. Transaction structure and timing are subject to mutually acceptable terms. The seller will provide three weeks of in-person training plus ongoing telephone support, and the landlord has confirmed that transfer to a new owner is acceptable, subject to the lease terms.
Please feel free to stop by the shop directly to meet the owner Devin, and manager, Danny. We hope to see this service continue to be offered to the local community for years to come.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- We are the only full-spectrum rim services provider in the region: CNC refacing, eccentric boring, machining/truing, hydraulic straightening, and cosmetic refinishing.
There are other providers for cosmetic repairs, and a hand full of tire shops offer straightening and welding but none offer the factory-spec refurbishment that Charlie's does, particularly due the our hydraulic straighteners for aluminum and steel, machining and CNC processes, and custom color matching system, more accurate that spectrophotometer matching. - Opportunities for Growth
- 1 Saturday Hours
Adding Saturday hours would add an estimated 10–30% revenue upside from a single weekend day. Many customers are not able to make M-F 9-5 work.
2 Pickup/Drop-Off Service
Concierge-style pickup and delivery for direct customers and dealerships.
3 Mobile Cosmetic Services
Expansion into mobile/ off-site curb-rash repairs.
4 Fleet & Dealership Contracts
Existing dealership referral relationships provide a foundation for negotiating volume contracts with fleets, rental companies, and auto groups.
5 On-Site Tire Removal & Mounting
A tire machine and balancer to dismount and mount customer tires would provide the convenience of drive-in, drive-out service and capture greater market share.
