Kerbed alloy...After being pulled over!

[birdcage]

Kerbed an alloy yesterday evening whilst being pulled over by an undercover car for a moment of exuberance in the GT3 RS

Bloody annoying but no ticket and decent copper as I put my hands up so I guess I got off lightly..

Anyone know a decent place to get the wheel sorted, I am in Regents park so central London or North/Acton way is good?

Try Chris at Exel wheels. I used him before and the results were incredible. Works from a van, so doesn't matter where you are.

Bad news birdcage... I never pull up kerbs for emergency service vehicles and this post reassures me that I am doing the right thing.

Poor recommendation by me. Sorry.

I'll reiterate that - fantastic!

...just to qualify that statement, Chris does not do the repair in the back of the van but will leave a set or a repalcement wheel while he takes the Wheel/s away to be well and truly properly repaired, he is a perfectionist and I highly recommend his service.

Another + for Chris.

+1 or however many it is for Chris now...... so easy its embarassing you ever thought of it as a problem. Quality is that good, that in the end you are glad you had a problem in the first place !

Except don't send a message to them through their website. I've tried twice and I've never had a response.

Does anyone know what sort of price it would be for a set of 4 standard wheel? Simple refurb.

Wheel Thing are recommended, wasn't happy with Lepsons but many are.

I think it depends how big they are but to give you an idea our 21" alloy wheels were about £125 per wheel

I had my M3 wheels repaired by wicked wheels and they did a nice job. I then scuffed them after only a week and they came out mobile to fix it. Cost was £50. www.wickedwheels.co.uk
