Question

Hi guys, a little help please. A while ago I managed to buckle my 17's (potholes+dark nights ) almost as soon as I got them and have now transferred them to the rear as they were causing a slight judder. Now the G/F has hit a protruding kerb with hers, so I have 10 alloys to get done (might as well all be the same). I used to have a link to a guy in Lincs (Wheeldoctor) who not only recoated them, but had the equipment to remove buckles. Is there anyone local (Leeds) who offers a similar service ?

Thanks in advance. CB

I've had a couple of wheels done by the place in York before - bit pricier at about £40 a wheel to straighten them out, but he's supposed to be as good as it gets. Busy man though so hard to get through to - gets wheels sent from all over the world.
