Alloy wheel refurb

[Thejimreaper]

I have just had my wheels on my Impreza refurbished and painted. Had them done by www.TheWheelSpecialist.co.uk who are based in Segenworth (which is just of the M27 @ junc 9 for those who dont know). I am very pleased with the results and the service they offered. I dropped the car off at 08.00am and picked it up at 16.00 all done. Highly recommended.

How much did you pay mate. Was it just a refurb or a paint? Want to get mine redone in a gun-metal colour.

I've just had a quote from them to get a set of Range Rover Alloys refurbed, painted with the rims polished. £480 but it the polishing that's bumping up the price. £200 cheaper without.
They've got a good website and seem very professional

mine cost £305. That was for the refurb and sand blasting and painting.

I quite fancy powder-coating/painting black or gunmetal
That or a set of 172 Sppedline's..

Yes neil it is a work of art, you just need to tell your misses to stop wasting her money on pointless things and get your M5's tatty wheels sorted. Original concours mintness is the way forwards as far as i'm concerned.

I had a set of 4 15" Peugeot alloys shot blasted/powder coated and finished in Anthracite by 'the wheel specialist' fantastic job! they look as though they are brand new, wheels were already tyre/valve less and had a quote of approx £220 inc VAT they emailed me saying if I booked them in before end of March i would get 25% discount....ao I did!
