S4S OZ wheels and corrosion

[morgan1994]

I have a 1995 S4S and some of the wheels have corrosion marks on them which apparently is a common problem. Does anybody know of a Company within the UK that can either refurbish them or just re-polish the rims? Any help would be much appreciated.

Try Pristine Alloy Wheel Refurbsihers Ltd, based near Milton Keynes but outlets across the UK I beleive, 01908 282628. I've just had some TVR 3000M Wolfrace alloys refurbed their, they really knew their stuff, the rims were cleaned up, diamond turned, the backs were powder coated and the fronts polished. They now the the absolute business!! I'm sure they could advise on your split rim alloys.

Pristine are spoken of highly by others,I've not had any direct experience with them.OZ Futura splits are notorious for the lacquer corroding,which no-one seems able to do-they can be re-polished,tec,but not re-lacquered.Moto-concept in Germany may be able to do them?

This has just been discussed at length on the uk yahoo esprit group. There are several S4s owners with the same problem...
