Hi - try this lot - they collect from various tyre/wheel centres around the country - sure they will have a dealer in the surrey area - they're pretty reasonable and do a good job:

I kerbed one of the wheels on my Viper last Summer and I took it to Wheel Wizard in Byfleet near Weybridge, Surrey. It was a BBS wheel and it now looks perfect.
They also refurbished the aftermarket wheels on my Skyline. They are not cheap. But I guess you get what you pay for.
Wheel Wizard`s number is 01932 347619.

Will they be able to repair a wheel if it's close to completely knackered?

That is to say, if the outside of the rim was badly kerbed and had a bloody great crack in it, could they sort it?

There's a good place called Wicked Wheels in the area. Sounds dodgy, but a mate who's far from the Burberry type recommended them to me.

How long to these repairs take?

I don't have a spare do would either have to wait while it's being done or get a mobile one out.

I've also heard very good things about Lepsons.

Yeah I used them for the wheels on my Tuscan. Very happy with the job they did. Still looking good today, and I think they were done nearly two years ago.
