Alloy Wheel advice

[loudpedal]

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy alloys?

I'm looking for somewhere with a) good choice b) reasonable prices c) good knowledge (preferably of TVRs) and d) near south London (or cheap delivery!)

Many thanks

Might be worth trying Surbiton Tyre & Wheel: they've always been very good when I've been there, although I've never used them for the TVR. They do seem to handle a wide range of desirable cars though.

Get a set of Kahn RSR's as they are the canine gonads.

btw, reason I ask the alloy question is twofold:

1) My chim's alloys have seen better days (previous owner obviously had a parking problem)

2) Saw a Griff the other day with Black alloys. It looked mental. Like a refugee race car. Have always liked black alloys so am thinking about 'blacking up'. Is this sacrilege?

No Apache, it was in souf London, South Wimbledon to be precise. Black (or was it very dark blue??) Griff with nice black wheels. Sounded tasty too...
