Not sure how far south you want to be but I got mine done in Melton Mowbray, which is kinda south if you go far enough north wobble

Details in this thread......

Highly recommend the place that did them. A year on they look as good as new and just need a damp cloth on them when washing the car.

Lepsons in Gillingham Kent get a good report from many I have spoken with, there is another company in Kent to whom I would never take my business ever again. PM me if you want the details.

I had my wheels (ex V8Smith's) diamond cut/refurbed by them a while ago and they did a fantastic job thumbup. Although I have not yet got round to putting them on as I have been too busy driving!!! :big laugh:

A work colleague has used them recently and they still have a very good reputation. I believe they can offer a same day service where you leave the car rather than having to take your wheels off and deliver them.

Cheers

Don't use anyone else but lepsons, they are the best without exception, great on price too. Had my audi alloys done there, fantastic job, and i'm a really fussy customer. Again, don't use the "other" well know firm, used them in the past and the result very poor.
