Post by: jaceyboy on 21 August 2020, 15:44
Might get my 19" Prets painted in Gloss Black, can anyone recommend a decent place in Bournemouth and not too expensive?

Wheel Specialist, nearest to Bournemouth is Wimborne. Expect to pay 400 - 450 that includes everything

Not quite Bournemouth but I got mine done by Trestan finishers in Southampton. Top quality job, really friendly and I paid £60/wheel

Lepsons price is similar @ around £430 incl VAT for a set four 19” wheels (includes a charge for tyre removal, re-valving the wheel, refitting the tyre and balancing), so maybe £400-£450 is the going rate. Their price for a set of four 19” wheels for refurb / refinish only (i.e. wheels supplied without tyres) is £364.80 incl VAT.

I dare say you can find somewhere that’ll do them cheaper, but cheap might be reflected in the quality of work. If I needed my wheels refurbished or refinished in a different colour to a high standard, I’d be pretty confident that’s what I’d be getting from the likes of the Wheel Specialist or Lepsons.

Be lucky to get 1 genuine pret for 500 new  :grin: and you’d be lucky to get new fakes for 500 too

I'd say it's about £125 per nineteen if you hand them over with tyres. Slightly less for a eighteen.

Well from anyone who knows what they are doing anyway.

Was that £60 per wheel including removing/ refitting tyre, new valve and rebalancing?
