We need to get the wheels of our little Clio Cup car refurbished, any suggestions where we can get this done at a reasonable cost? We have 10 wheels so dont want to be spending 600AED each.

Also is the preference powder coat or paint??

Thanks,

Heiki (056 256 1321) at DAS organised our Honda race wheels to be painted. Of course you would probably prefer a company based in Abu Dhabi......

Paint is the best option Sam

Just make sure when you get them back you tighten the nuts a couple of times to remove any access paint that has built up in the recess where the nut sits, nothing worse than a wheel overtaking you through a corner

Paint all the way mate. Powdrcoating alloy needs to be done carefully and I very much doubt there's the expertise in the uae for that.
