Hi,

I'm looking to refurb my wheels and was wondering if anyone could recommend somewhere in Bristol or near by.
Also do you have any idea on pricing, i spoke to my usual garage and they suggested £150 - £200 per wheel which sounds expensive?

Thanks in advance for your help.

What sort of wheel???

Standard refurb should cost no more than £50 max.

Jag S Type R...

I can only imagine the price they quoted was so high as they have to send them off site?

£50 sounds far more realistic.

Hi Gary! Long time no hear. What have you had since selling the V8S?

Are you coming to the Cheddar meet?

I used Clint at Clinical Wheels (Google for contact details) I took a reference from SJ Cook who told me that he'd about 500 wheels for them and he also does Dick Lovett's as well. £40 each for my Chim and I was well pleased
