The wheels on my Integra Type R are on their third set of tyres and look tatty due to the original weight locations etc. I was thinking of using Wicked Wheels to get them all repainted and relacquered in anthracite.

Anyone any experience of their workmanship and prices?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.

They seem to be nationwide. They come to you and do the job out of a van. Heard good reports on another forum, but don't know if I like the mobile idea even though it would be damned convenient.

Here's their website link

Wicked Wheels

Thumbs up

Thanks for the replies guys. I think I might give 'em a go.

Abbylad, No worries, I should've been clearer in my original post!

Regards,
