Had a bit of motorway today, and even though I was surprised to have it pointed out all four wheels were slightly buckled, it's amazing how much smoother the already (I thought) smooth ride is now. Bit of an unexpected bonus that and I'm sure as I swept gracefully around the M3 to M25S sweeper it was hanging on far better than normal, maybe because the suspension isn't having to deal with oval wheels.

That's it now I'll stop crowing lol.

Got mine back today and it was perfect. The finish is so smooth its a big thumbs up from me. I wish I went here when I had mine done gloss black before.

trying claim balancing was an optional extra (quote was for drive in drive out service) to cream a few more quid on top.
Well done on that - they quoted me for balancing in the first place on the first wheel so ended up not questioning it - was feeling so guilty about the wheel anyway!!

Any pics of the Jag wheels?

Nice Orange Infinity - you'll never loose that in a car-park!!

I supplied new
wheel centres but because they turned out not to fit tightly they quite rightly didn't fit them nor the crappy originals. They're sorted now however so no ugly holes any more.
