Title: wheel refurb prices?
Post by: converge on 19 January 2009, 20:55: Hi everyone, i'm trying to get an alloy wheel refurb service off the ground and was wondering if anyone could tell me what they've paid to have theirs done in the past? Once i've figured it out i'm planning on offering a discount for members. Thanks! Tom.

Up North for example Leeds, can get my D90's sprayed in Anthracite for £40 a corner and down South, London... £68 a corner... What a rip!!

Would definitly travel out to get my wheels refurbed again!!

Post by: kells on 13 July 2010, 21:53: £300 for my D90s doin, would have been much less if id gone for a standard paint/powdercoat finish

Post by: thebassman on 13 July 2010, 22:22: I was quoted £80 a corner for standard silver, 2 piece split rims at pristine in Woburn, mk.

rates are for northerners only i'm afraid :wink: :smiley:

in all fairness though by the time you have had them delivered/returned the difference has been lost.

Post by: thebassman on 16 July 2010, 08:58: I have been phoning around and every where seems really expensive.
I want them bead blasted and powder coated........... not gold plated. :shocked:

Pristine want £320.
BJV want £296.
Wheel Geenie want £300.

Has anyone got any suggestions for a realistic price but a good job............ they need to accept work from southerners :laugh:

Post by: 2001gti4 on 16 July 2010, 10:30: Dented Pride in Swindon will do refurb, sandblast and powdercoat for £240 all four corners. Includes taking off and refitting tyres and a spare set of wheels while yours are away....

Post by: jmsheahan on 16 July 2010, 11:36: Had my sebrings blasted and powdercoated for £120. Had to get the tyres removed/refitted myself though.

Lepsons are supposed to be excellent. Says on the site the prices start at £160 + VAT for what I'm guessing is a staight forward colour etc.

£160 to strip and paint in a single "normal" colour (silver black white)

2 piece splits like anni wheels depends what you want doing (full strip and rebuild or just paint the centre and polish the dish ?)-priced from £200
3 piece split rim wheels depends on the size and what parts are needed for the rebuild - from £250
i have an account with a couriers and can get them collected and returned for about £22 each way

That sounds good, perhaps you can pm me a quote.

I have the tyres off and all the bolts taken out.

I am looking to have the rims bead blasted and powder coated in original silver.
The centres i was thinking bead blasting and powder coated in either "anthracite" preferred or original silver.

Would be good if you could re-build them and fit new tyres, but perhaps you can give me a price for this and without.

Also, where abouts in Lincolnshire are you.

cheers
