I need to refurb my Griff wheels, me thinks some you might have just had this done. So all the usual questions, I don't want to spend sqillions but I will pay for a good job. Polished and lacquered versus Painted and lacquered and how long do they last when given generous amounts of TLC. My wheels are in excellent nick just looking a bit tired and grey. Any advise, help and experiences would be very much appreciated. take it steady

Can I ask how much they charged for doing the split rims please, did you have the bolts replaced aswell, mine are going a bit manky, they're in worse condition than the rims.
Cheers, Al.
£613 inc VAT + £200 for new Titanium bolts, sourced from a chap in Holland.
Cheaper stainless steel bolts were also available but I had doubts about the stainless in alluminium!
They were left unlaquered at my request.

Thanks for that, having looked at mine again I think the rims are almost perfect, so only really need new bolts. Is this a DIY job, once the tyres are off, or not? I seem to remember some special tool is required to get the old bolts out?
Cheers, Al.
As I did'nt do the job myself I suggest you speak to Tony at Renowheel for advice, he's a very helpfull and approachable bloke.
Believe you do need a special tool and they are like RHS.
Tony did our OZ multispokes and it appears to be exactly the same cost and work as previously mentioned. I think once you've undone the bolts you may as well do the rest as the seal is likely to break.
They do look the bol**** and you probably don't realise how good they can look and what a difference it makes.
