Default Anyone know of a decent wheel refurb place London/Essex area?

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good wheel refurb place around the london/essex area?

Also do you know if outer edges if a rim can be straightened i.e. damage from hitting a curb/apex at high speed?

Thanks

I'm looking to get mine refurbed and sprayed black.
Will probably take it to these guys:
Lepsons | Wheels & Tyres

Might be a bit out of the way, but have heard their work is top notch and they have a year's guarantee on their wheels too.
