Garage/Wheel Fitter Herts/Beds/Bucks-Recommendations?

[Claire-i1bmr]

Hi,

I have a refurbed and gloss black set of alloys to fit to my 2004 e63/645ci. The person I got them from has sold them to me on the basis they are the right size for my car - in this case 19", front 8.5j & rear 9j's.

My local garage (not BMW, not an indy) can't find the size markings (as the alloys have been resprayed). They have measured the wheels and suggest the wheels are 9.5 (front) and 10 (back), therefore too big.

I have asked them to look at the spokes closely to see if they can find the original markings under the gloss. The chap I bought the wheels off has said the markings are on the wheels and they are 100% the right size (8.5 and 9).

Even if the garage can confirm the wheels are the size I have told them, and not what they have measured them as, I'm feeling nervous now about them putting the new wheels on - clearly they are not familiar with this specific job.

So, I wondered if anyone has a recommendation for a garage in the Tring or Berkhamsted area. Further afield is Leighton Buzzard, Hemel Hempstead so I'm willing to travel to go to a recommended garage/wheel fitter that is familiar with changing wheels and even better, with BMW cars/wheels.

Thanks,

Claire

Cheib,

I've used these guys to repair and respray the bumper on a 330i:
