MK Radical Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Hi All, I am looking at getting my alloy wheels refurbished, but I want them to be the same original colour, so I think they will need to go to a specialist who can colour match them. Does anyone know anywhere in the Surrey/Kent area? Thank you. Michael
Gambit Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Just doing the samething with mine. Not sure about anyone local hopefully @Scoobyghost will maybe know someone.
Scoobyghost Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 I know a few wheel refurbers but let me check if they paint match. 1
LoganS Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Only place I know is on canvey island which will likely be too far.
dgarside Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Similar I know a place in Manchester (SmartWheels) but not local ;-) Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
salsa-king Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 just had mine done.. https://www.thewheelspecialist.co.uk/wheel-finishes/manufacturers-matches-oem/
MK Radical Posted July 8, 2016 Author Posted July 8, 2016 Thanks everyone. I have just had a look at the wheel specialist and there is one based near Chessington, which is not that far away. Thank you Salsa-King, I will contact them and see what they can do.
dgarside Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 BTW another excellent place with some great reviews from other car clubs is Wheelrite. Had a chat with Steve the owner last week and will be getting mine in when I get back from hols. Only downside is he's very popular so sometimes there is a wait to get them done. Gave me some great recommendation on colour for mine and even sent me some pictures through. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
david1972 Posted August 21, 2016 Posted August 21, 2016 What's a typical price for a full set of 4 to get a proper refurb, including colour change? (If there is such a typical figure). Ta Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
savage bulldogs Posted August 21, 2016 Posted August 21, 2016 I used wheel worxs in Colchester they charged me £220. To pop the tyres off , sort a little curbing, paint in polar black ,refit and balance the tyres . If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊 1
dgarside Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 I've had two quotes of £225 and £240, so somewhere around those prices. The custom colour can sometimes make a difference and also the amount of repair work on the wheels. Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1
