Good wheel refurb??

[snail_on_skunk]

Hi, got a set of 16" tele's that i want refurbing but problem is, spun them up at work and 2 are slightly buckled, anyone know anywhere that can straighten wheels as well as refurb them, havnt been able to find anyone that seems legit tbh.

Too far for you, but I have always used Paul at 1stClassAlloys in Lichfield. Straightens, welds and powdercoats to an extremely high standard.

looks good but think a 4 hour round trip in the 1.8T is gonna cost me more than the refurb

Yep, Lepsons in Oxford have a good reputation too, still a fair way for you though I guess ?

I think they are  doing free carriage at the moment.

We use alloy art, Southend. Excellent company.

well finally got the wheels done by Lepsons, lovely people to chat to, not bad price either (done it through my work so got it on trade!  )

here are the before and after pics (bare in mind, the person who i got them off had them in the garden for 3 years he said, and just wanted rid of them!)

I had them acid dipped, stripped, straightened (perfectly might i add, tested on the balancing machine) primed, powder coated and laquered, and they also done the centre caps but didnt paint or laquer them as i want to hand paint the crest

after:


p.s for the smart ass's on here, its just green electrical tape until i fit the tyres!

Cost? I need my Super Ts done! I'm semi North London (Borehamwood) for work so this interests me.

they done all that for me and even picked up and delivered back to me for £240 altogether, based on wheel size and width obviously.
