I used The Wheel Specialist to repair my alloys and spray them gloss black - pic in my profile.

They did an excellent job.

The Wheel Specialist did my Clio V6 wheels and just repaired a buckled wheel on my BMW for me. Very nice people, excellent service and quality.

Hi Nick
I too am looking at getting a set of wheels refurbished on my wifes Honda Accord, and on your recommendation I contacted The Wheel Specialist, quoted me an excellent price, + a 15% discount if booked before Christmas, pay just £50 deposit now, and the work can be carried out anytime before the end January '10

I did mention to them the excellent reviews they had from PH's so if any one else wants this deal, you may need to mention PH after you get the quote!

Thanks again
David

Hi Richard
Your wheels look great, they certainly do a very good job, my wife was very pleased with the finished item on her Honda. Now stay away from them there Kerbs lol.

What colour did you choose, was it Power Silver?

Nice Rich, mine were done there 14 months ago and still look great. You just need new wheel bolts now!

Did they try and match BMW's 'crome shadow'?

Another vote for them here. They did my complicated GT3 split rims two years ago. Took lots of time out with me to choose a slightly different colour for the centres than the outer rims - a bit of a gamble but worked brilliantly well in the end. Got bright silver rims with a kind of light champagne colour for the centres - look great against the dark blue bodywork.

A fabulous job, flawless in fact with a high lustre finish. Two years on the wheels look as good as they did when I collected the car. Oh, and a very reasonable price too, given the amount of work.

Recommended.

well I was the original poster for this request.....was very pleased with the work they did on my alloys- top class workmanship at good price, subsequently I have taken another set of 20" split rims down for the full treatment and another set which we deceided would be just better with a good clean; you will get an honest professional deal with the Fareham Wheel Specialist. Recommended? For Sure!

No experience with the Wheel Specialist other than getting a quote for my OEM 18s on a BMW - went to the Wheel Man in Fareham (http://thewheelman.co.uk) and they were round £20/wheel cheaper. Dennis and his team did a great job.
