What needs doing to the wheels, just powder coating? or do they need some refurb work too?

powerwrx 07 March 2010 07:11 PM

just want them doing a different colour, i think theres only one slight mark on them, which will dissapear when sand blasted i would have thought

the wheel specialists - first class; use them all the time

Used TWS, paid about £300 for 4. Some significant kerbing on passenger sides. Had refurb and all coated anthracite. Mine was a drive-in, drive-out cost; quite a bit cheaper if you take the stripped wheels along to them.

Top notch finish.

Looked at a few other places.................TWS sounded most professional, so went with them even though they were not the cheapest.

£329 :eek:

It looks a great set up there as I went in and enquired about refurbing a set of 17's and they quoted £240. I wouldn't have though 18's would have been that much more.

I believe Prestige Wheels are pretty good also.

Don't go to Diamond Wheels in Stockport.........F$CKIN MONKEYS!:nono:
