LSN coatings Castleford.... around £130 a set for 17" wheels, almost any colour you can imagine....

Was over a year ago now, so price may have crept up (?).

I believe they were approx. £200 inc v.a.t. mate. The car was with Jase @ Scoobybits (when he was still in Rotherham) as it was being repaired for a crash. My understanding is you drop the wheels off (with prior notice) and collect the next day

Not a chance of that at the moment, it's about a week turn around now, The cost last time i spoke to them was £40 for 17"'s and £45 for 18"'s + vat, think that includes tyre re-seating and balancing!

Hense I said "prior notice", i.e. you ring up and arrange to drop them off when they're free.

Tell you what just let the op ring up and sort it out if he choses to use them, at the moment there that busy they can't give you prior notice for a day turnaround "HENCE" that's why i said a week turn around because they told me drop them off and they would probably be ready in a week!!!!!!

Alls well that ends well. Regardless of the timescale for waiting, they are a superb small outfit and do an exceptional job.

(I'll just go spell check that for you, save you the hassle )

. Yeah they are exceptional, all i will say to the op don't make the same mistake as me, when you do get your wheels done (where ever you chose) make sure you treat them like the rest of your car, ie make sure you clay bar them regularly and apply some polish after words and never use wonder wheels or aluminium cleaner, and they will stay like brand new for a very long time
