Default Wheel refurbishers?

I've had my gold 18" P1 Prodrive wheels for about 5 years but unfortunately, they've all now been kerbed! (I'm blaming the missus!)

Can anyone recommend anywhere in the Yorkshire area that can do a full refurb & a decent colour match to the original colour?

Cheers.

If you have a place you trust for tyres, ask them who does theirs, or alternatively, ask at a trusted bodyshop where they get theirs done.

Alloy Wheel Refurbishment | Refurbish Alloy Wheels | Refurbish Wheels | Alloywheel Repair | Refurbished Alloy Wheels are a franchise of Lap-tab. I've used Lap-tap and found them to be very good, also used BJV Engineering, who were also good.
Let us know how you get on as I could do with getting some more refurb's done.
