Default Wheel refurb....

I want to get my alloys refurbished but would it be worth waiting a few months until spring time once the weathers a bit better to avoid our winter roads(salt/grit/dirt) or would it not really effect them if done properly?

Cheers

Wont affect them if done properly. Just depends how often you want to clean them at this time of year.

Won't effect them at all if there properly done, my mate who owns a wheel refurb shop always says to me it's better to have them done in the winter if you have cracks, curbing, paint flaking as the harsh grit, salt etc can make them worse and cost more on the refurb in the spring time
