Curbed one of my Prodrive wheels yesterday.

No smart comments about my driving ability please

Anyway its a small area about 1.5" long on the edege of the wheel

They are P-FF7's in Silver.

Has anybody out there any experience of using the mobile service Wicked Wheels ? Are they any good. What do they charge ?

Cheers

Steve

a friend of mine who had an audi A4, left it at a main dealers for servicing, when he went to pick the car up they actually told him that the mechanic on parking the vehicle up he had scuffed 1 of the 18" RS4 alloys. after a bit of discussion and a discount on his service he agreed to the dealer having his wheel repaired.
they used wicked wheels & the job could not be faulted. as new were his words. hope this puts your mind at rest matey.

Cheers matey. Looks like I will use them then

What should I say to my Girlfriend ? As it was outside here house and the last time I scuffed a wheel on my RB5 it was outside her house.

Come to mention it I had and ex girlfriend when I scuffed the alloys on my first UK Scoob

Any help appreciated

best thing to do is leave your car in the middle of the road away from any curbs or buy your girlfriend a tent & put it on 10 acre of open grass land, then tell her you'll see her once a week.
At the end of the day what comes first, the scoob or the girl.
If you don't reply i'll take it she's clubbed you to death.

Are you anywhere near Bedfordshire? I've just had mine repaired, 3 of them? Obviously a crap driver, or just careless! Used a local guy who did a fantastic job, 18" Prodrive Speedlines in Flitter Grey. If you want details e-mail me.
Cheers

I don't want to steal your thread Steve, but I've done the same to one of my 18" gold Prodrives and I'd really like to get it sorted.

Does anybody know someone in the Sheffield area that does this sort of thing?
