Default Wheel refurbishment Portsmouth area

Got my wheels back today having been refurbished by these people:

The Wheel Specialist Fareham, Hants
Unit 16 The IO Centre
Stephenson Road
Segensworth
Fareham
PO15 5RU
Telephone: 01329 846 040 / 0845 465 4868
E-Mail: fareham@thewheelspecialist.co.uk


Got to say I'm absolutely over the moon with the work they've done. Far far better than OE finish. First class service also. Colour I chose was anthracite/charcoal. The entire wheel has been powder coated, even the rear of the spokes and the inside of the wheel that the tyre sits on.

So glad you posted this thread, that is exactly the colour i would like my wheels sprayed. They look fantastic. Do you mind me asking how much you paid?

Not at all, the job was £348 which included removing my tyres from the current wheels and fitting to these and tyre disposal for 4 tyres. I have had cheaper work in the past but nothing anywhere near the quality of these. Mine had some rim scuffing on all wheels to fix also. The finish is powder coating so tougher than paint.

They are at Goodwood for the breakfast club tomorrow if you're passing that way. It finishes at around 11 usually. Starts at 7-30 ish

That seems quite expensive but as you say they have done a top job by the looks of it.

Was at the Pistonheads Silverstone meet today so couldnt make goodwood.
