My wheels are staring to look tatty.....most of the problem is oxidisation of the wheel surface with a little bit of curbing on the nearside wheels......any recomendations in the northwest.....the wheels are the upgraded 15 spoke as per my profile.....cheers chaps in advance smile

I've used these guys in Liverpool before and was very pleased with the results: http://scuffsnscratches.co.uk/

I'd had new wheels on my old RX8 for about a week before I managed to kerb one in a horrible multi storey car park. These guys did a brilliant job and the wheels still looked great when I sold the car 2 years later.

I used thewheelspecialist in Manchester for a full sand blast & powder coat. Better than new results. Highly recommended. Haggled them down to £250 for all four.

I used a company called WRC in Bamber Bridge Preston. They told me that the do all the refurb work for Preston BMW garage (kinders).

I had an Ultralegera wheel repaired and to be fair they made a real good job of it, am extremely pleased. It is MATT black and they ground a scuff out and repainted it.

They are at Unit 4, Old Mill Ind Est, School Lane, Bamber Bridge, PR5 6SY. 01772 627600.

Hope this helps.

JCT charged me less than Shunt paid for his 4 (pro rata) wink

Edit: just noted that Shunt had more than a repair done !!!

I had some rather scuffed wheels on my CL600 done by these guy's. They did a fantastic job. Like new when I picked the car up and no worries about the tyre pressure transmitters, they knew how to handle them. The place had a lot of exotic machinery in at the time.

taking mine to be done next week at finishing first in Burnley. They will blast, powder coat and then clear powder coat laquer for £180 a set. Only problem is I have to get the tyres removed first.
