Wheel Specialist - Ferndown

[shantybeater]

Hi All,

Just popped in to enquire about a 4 wheel refurb, price came out at £380 all in for 18" wheels doesn't seem too bad. Does anyone have any experience with these guys? I know the fareham branch are often raved about on here, but apparently its a franchise so there is no guarantee I will recieve the same service.

They are excellent mate. Had a few sets done there. Tell them I sent you. They'll do you a better price.

Had all 4 of mine done by them after an unfortunate meeting with a curb. Fair bit of damage to be repaired and full respray in Shadow chrome resulted in this... They did a great job and are top people :-)

The mark at the bottom left of the wheel in the pic is a BBS stamp and not a blemish.

Very nice!

Never had an issue with them over 3 sets, got the lips re polished on my first set foc too. As eddie said you should be able to haggle less than £380

Have you gone to Silver Wheels?

I've had quite a few sets done by Marcus and he is very competitive on price with lots of colour options.

I must have had 5-6 sets of wheels done by Simon and his team at TWS in Ferndown - wouldn't go anywhere else to be honest.

I would second that opnion. I've used them a couple of times and the quality of the work and the service is excellent. I would totally recommend them to anyone.

Marcus at Silver Wheels can do diamond cut refurbishing in-house also!

I got my wifes mini cooperS split rims done there. Superb job. I live 2miles from the fareham branch, but found the Ferndown one cheaper for this job. If you mention pistonheads, you'll get a discount too.

So can Simon at The Wheel Specialist Ferndown - have had their own diamond cutting machine for some time.

TWS in Ferndown have done 4 or 5 sets of wheels for me. No complaints.
