Ian where did you send your wheels to for refurb? You seem pleased with the result, how good is the refurb? also how much, thanks Tom.

Company called Belmont metal finishing in Old Dalby near Melton in Leics, take the wheel with a tyre and or tyre off, shot blast, dress and fill any damage, re spray and bake, tyre back on and re balance with new valve £38 + Vat, used them couple of times before and top job and very reasonable price

Oh and Im Alan............ where you get Ian from ?

Chrome nuts to finish

Good result on the wheels and reasonable price it seems..
I live further North but could drop 2 in at a time, how long would it take typically?

Thanks Tim

[lesstatt]

I left them there on a Monday and collected on the Sat so 5 days really

Tim, If your up north you could try PX Wheels in Blackpool.
Had mine done nearly three years ago and they still look mint.
Top job and cost about 50 quid a wheel including removing tyres refitting and balancing.
As the weather was unusully good I drove up to see him from Manchester done in about an hour and then a blast home.
Cheers.
Paul

To be fair i was in no hurry and said take your time but dont think they would be that quick, judging by the amount of work going through id say 2-3 days would be min
