Title: Alloy wheel refurb
Post by: dave7268 on 06 August 2013, 15:03

After some opinions and recommendations.....

Just got a new set of alloys as the old ones have quite a bit of kerbing on all wheels (down to letting other people drive my car - lesson learned).

Anyway as they are 18" BBS CK's I want to keep them and put winter tyres on them but would like to get them refurbished. They are currently Anthracite colour and am undecided as to whether to get them repainted in the same/similar colour or get them power coated in a different colour.

Question is... which is the better - powder coated or painted?

So can anyone recommend somewhere in the NW area, preferably within an hours drive of Liverpool?

TIA  :smiley:
