Tyres and wheel refurbishment
Chaps, and lasses.
I'm currently on the search for some new black circles to fit my new wheels. I'm looking at 215/35/17, but there are not so many options about so am also looking at 215/40/17. Any recommendations on where to look/go?
Also looking to have the wheels refurbed - again, any recommendations?
All help is greatly appreciated.

Correct, I have an RB5. A 35 can fit 17s and looks very nice, however the option of tyre is very limited and not all brands provide them so may end up going with the 40.

Kev, I have always used Camskill for tyres, and its funny as I did go for Toyo Proxes TR1 215/40/17 - delivered £268. a friend of mine runs a tyre shop so balance and fitting was free.
wheel refurb, I went with a recommendation from my tyre shop pal. Bling Wheels in SWF. He does a 24hr turnaround service and I am very happy with them - not to mention he spent a long time trying to mix a pewter colour for powder coating!

Found a great selection on tyresshopper.Co.UK and blackcircles.Co.uk for sub £300 fitted and balanced. What would be the best recommended tyre for 205/40/17 for day to day use (sometimes fast cornering on mid Wales roads) but decent life???

Wheel Refurbs
Can recommend these guys in Colchester for wheel refurbs. Had my Honda HRV alloys powder coated and they were great.
