Ahhhrrgg, sorry forgot all about this..

I'm afraid I'll have to pull out of this as fund are having to be diverted to a new clutch..

That along with new pads all round and a service looming (as well as insurance and MOT not long after that..) means I' end up divorced if I also go along with this as well..

Still a great deal though..

Once again, sorry for not saying so sooner..

I have PM'd everyone about the DEPO. As some may be on hols or other expeditions i will extend the time untill next friday, so thats the 24th of july. If there not in by then YOUR OUT. I have arranged with the refurber incase of this, that the cost will still be very close to the original £150. I wont extend it any longer than the 24th, as its not fair on people who have paid.

Not sure yet when I'll be going up just yet, one of my offices is just down the road from speedwells, if you can get one up there I will be able to bring it back for you, I'll have a look and see when I'll next be up there and let you know Wednesday if your at the pub

Could everyone who has had a refurb, give me feedback for Iby. And if youve got any pics that would be better.

Not the best of pictures as was taken on my iPhone but these are mine after the refurb, I'll get a better one when it's been cleaned, bit dirty in the picture. I'll try and get some pics of my mates Evo Tommi Edition with it's very bright white wheels.
Spoken to Iby for a while when I was there, mate is well happy with his anyway

Picked mine up today and the lads have done an awesome job, no pics yet as traffic was a nightmare and I didn't get back till late.
I'll post up some pics of the finished job over the weekend.
Thanks again to Paul for organising this too

Looks the business now, they refitted all the tyres the right way round (directional) put the right pressure in them and balanced them perfectly.

Considering most place round my way charge £70+ per wheel for the same job i'd say they are a bargain.

any sort of idea of how long it takes to turn them around because it would mean leaving the car on axle stands
