chumaxa Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hi guys, I am living around Leamington Spa, and I want to get my wheels refurbished, as you can read in the title. Do you know a great place around Leamington warwick to do it ?? The problem is, the lotus is my daily drive, and I can't take off the wheels and leave them at the garage. I found Silverline wheels and tyres, not sure they offer this kind of service, but worth to ask this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chumaxa Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 Well I can not do anything by myself because I don't even have a place to work on the car, and I want a full nice refurbish, get the wheel brand new, sort of at least. For information, Silverline is 90 +VAT per wheel, so no way .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to work outside, unless it's really cold, then I go in the garage and light the wood burner! Just get plenty of wet & dry from course through to the fine grades, and get rubbing! When I was younger I used to buy kerbed wheels and refurb them to sell them on. They come up like new with a bit of elbow grease. Yeah, £90 per wheel is about the going rate.

scatty Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 The only place I know is the Wheel Specialists, but they are in nottingham and burton. Probably too far, but they are very good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chumaxa Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 30 per wheel, sounds cheap, is it still good quality ? Because on my previous Clio Rs, the paint decided to leave the wheel a while after, previous owner did a great joob .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elanmac Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I have no issues with the finish or service. Been on the car 12months. Have a look at their website, I have no connection with them other than being a satisfied customer. Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
