Ouch 

Can't they be refurbed??

[wantmygti]

Ouch and ouch. but I would of thought they are def fixable unless they are buckled.

[Simonet]

I'm hoping so... The tyres did a really good job of protecting the wheels actually (as can be seen by the damage to them!) I'm hoping they can be. the damage looks localised to the edge area and they don't seem buckled. If they are, then I may as well buy aftrmarket ones for now, and buy some other Pescara alloys when they are on ebay!

i'd say that can be repaired pretty easily.. why not go for a colour change on all 4 while they're being worked on anyway?

ive found a place that will sell a Michelin sport tyre (one of the best for £100 each), if your in the hampshire area, worth a visit

[KentBladeboy]

Had the same type of damage on Beamer wheels before, repaired at Lepsons, you could not even tell they had been damaged, from memory was about 50 quid a wheel

[Simonet]

Thanks Phil, North West so I'll stick with the £120 each.We've used them before and they're good.

with regards the colour change... I want to keep the Ed30 standard, that's why I bought it, I liked it as is. Just hate it with imperfections. Fingers crossed the damage won't been seen in a few weeks! I'll keep you posted.

Thanks to all

Well, i have no sympathy for rubber neckers



But in this case i will make an exception

[Simonet]

Like many others, I consider myself a good, observant and thoughtful driver but mistakes happen, and I have to agree I hate rubber neckers.... looks like i've learnt this the hardway!

if they are 17" then you can get them refurbed for around £60 per alloy.
If theya re 18" then good luck trying to refurb them as theya are 2 tone

Thats only for the Monza II alloys on the standard...
