Ronnie (and anyone else for that matter), found this on the HSV/Monaro forum & thought I'd pass it on!

They appear to have quite good prices!

I'm sure others have had great work done by them, but they made a mess of the Speedline split-rims from my Alfa Romeo.
The powder coating is poor, the polished rim isn't great, but worst of all was that when I got them back several of the bolts holding the rims together were only finger-tight.
In fairness to them, I refused to pay and they didn't push it, but that's not quite the point.

Thanks for that jamieboy - I wasn't aware of the finished product...guess that's what these forums are all about, eh - passing on information for all our benefit?
Agreed yours may have been one-off, but you never know!

May be too far away from you, but just had all four alloys done on my S3.
Done with care and attention, not a quick job but a lot workmanship.
Well pleased, now I have a complete 'new' set of OZ wheels.
One man band, has real pride and passion with his work. Simple - You pays for what you get.
Price depending on amount of work and labour etc.
Give Andy of Wheel Styles a ring on 01454 228456.

I found him here on Pistonheads site after another S3 owner had his wheels done.
You can't beat personal recommendation!
