Best place for Alloy Refurb?

[peterattheboro]

Hi there.

Can someone recommend a place I can get my wheels refurbed on the ST220.

I'm in the Cleveland area.

Thanks

Without any shadow of doubt- Romax in Ross Road Stockton.

Romax, top quality work and great service.

I agree Romax are very good but they don't do every type of wheel.

I used `Pristine` who do a collect/delivery courier service and did my 4 Insight wheels for about £180 inc post.

Dont use wheel wizard, he did my ST wheels, looked great for a day then all the laquer fell of, fair play he then did them again free of charge, but a a week later the laquer fell of again, no refund said it must be the wheels and there is nothing he can do about it anymore !!

Romax all day long. There is a 3 letter place in Sunderland who shall remain nameless who do a reasonable job but don't expect much in the way of customer service. Romax only do a small number of finishes but the quality is excellent.

Yeah, always heard good things about romax however they can't do the special finish on my alloys so I guess as long as you have a standard finish you should be fine.

SEM in Sunderland. Did my 19" M3 wheels. Did an outstanding job! I know of many people that have used them and never a bad word said.

Unfortunately they did my mates M3 alloys and although they looked good when first done it didn't take long for the legendary milky spots/patches to appear beneath the laquer....

I never had a problem with mine, although within 4 months I changed the car.

Agree with you there so they won't get any work from me.

Check these people out, they've got a new place in Newcastle which only opened a few weeks ago.

Not from me. Never.

Try Teesdale Powder Coaters, part of Motorcool at Thornaby.

£265, not bad at all - the same can't be said for the quote they gave me, thought they were Dick Turpin in disguise!!
