Wheel Refurb - Cambridge
Discussion
The 17" cup alloys on my 993 could do with some attention.
There are no kerb scuffs or damage, but two of them have some small blisters and all 4 look a bit tired.
What is the best way to get them refurbished?
I need two new rear tyres as well, so is it best to get the wheels done at the same time or do they re-furb them with the tyres on?
Any advice gratefully received.

We would prefer to refurb without tyres, that way you can receive an as new set of wheels.
As a rough guide.
To refinish a set of cup ones, inside and out, so looking at the entire wheel not just the face they look new, including the centre cap, in any colour including the original silver.
Assuming the wheels are straight £50 per wheel. We are not the cheapest but our work is good and guaranteed.

Thanks Wildoliver.
The deal sounds fine, but the logistics are more difficult as the car is in Cambridge with tyres on it's wheels, and you're in yorksire and wanting tyreless rims.
I was hoping (probably unreasonably) for a local drive in, drive out solution.
Perhaps I should stick new tyres on the back, drive it through the summer, and then take all the wheels off in the winter when I probably won't use it much anyway?

I used Wicked Wheels recently who have branches UK wide. They collected the wheels one morning (leaving the car on axel stands) and dropped them off the following morning. They would have done them the same day but I was a bit rushed. Oh, and that was split rims - they can do 1 piece wheels at your place. Thumbs up from me
