I've used them several times, most recently about a month ago to refurb the wheels on my Chimaera 450. Always produced a stunning finish on the wheels I have had done and the guy who looked after my car (Chris) obviously took some pride in his work.Only minor downside is that they are so busy they rarely answer the phone or email. I popped in to see them one Saturday morning (they are behind Gillingham station) and was shown a variety of silver finishes to choose from and booked the car in there and then. You can either have them collect the wheels from you or you can deliver your car to them on a Wednesday morning and collect Friday evening / Saturday morning, which is what I did.
Hi Grey Ghost.
I have spoken to Tony (the owner) recently regarding some emails that are going answered as the subject was bought up on here a while back. He said there has been an on going problem with emails not being received through the enquiry section on their website. I don't know if this has been sorted yet, so will give him a nudge again tomorrow.
As to phone calls going unanswered, they do have 2 receptionists that take calls but can at times, due to the nature of their business, can both be away from their desk for a few minutes at a time. I guess you may have been unlucky on the occasions that you have called. On the rare occasion I have had this happen, I give it 5 minutes or so and call again and most of the time get through.
Hope this helps and as said before will let Tony know of your concerns.

I have no issue at all with Lepsons and really do appreciate why they are so busy having visited their site on more than one occassion. I have always found their staff to be fully customer focused when I do communicate with them and the personal touch they offer when you drop off your pride and joy ensures you are happy to walk away and know that you will come back in a few days to see your wheels looking exactly as you would like them to
It's almost worth locating another set of wheels just to have the graphite grey finish I was also considering......

Hi,
Roughly what sort of price do lepsons charge for wheel refurbishment.
Thanks
My 17" soft spoke RS alloys were £329 for 4 including new valves. Their pricing structure is based on rim size and is on their web site somewhere. It does sound like a lot of money but in my case I feel it was well worth it.Roughly what sort of price do lepsons charge for wheel refurbishment.
Thanks
KDS has done a basic price structure on his website for Lepsons, have a look under the wheels section.

It will also depend on the finish you have, wheel type etc etc etc which will determine the price. Which is probably why Lepsons haven't put prices on the site. Therefore probably best to phone for a quote.

Scurries off to find different company.....
If you are able to pop into their workshops they will gladly show you around and explain options to you as well as being able to show you finished wheels in colours and finishes you might want to consider.
