Alloy Wheel Re-Furb, how much ?

[Impresss]

Was thinking about getting my wheels re-done, how much should I be paying ?

I think the average is about £45 per wheel ??

Got some quotes:

Evans Halshaw £50 + VAT per wheel, Chips away £70 + VAT per wheel.

Depends on what the places you get quotes from means by re-furb.

I am looking at getting mine done and got my first quote from a well-regarding place that does the full treatment. They want £300 for all 4 wheels - that's stripping off the old paint/lacquer with acid, filling/welding/sanding the scrapes, power coating, baking, and lacquer finish. Individual wheels cost £80-£90 each.

They should look as good or new - or better - and should last for ages. Well, they'd better for that price!

Guy at chipsaway said he soaked them in acid, so a complete makeover.
