Nice one robrac,

I wish I lived closer, I would have had one of those wheels off you in a heartbeat. Mine are desperate for refurb, but diamond cut - they need them for 4 days per corner, and as I have no spare, can’t be done :eusa-think:

Have you tried the wheel specialist in garforth near Leeds they do a drive in drive out service they can turn a set around in just over a day for powder coat but not sure about diamond cutting I know they do it though. Maybe worth a call I’ve been and had a look very professional setup quoted me £350 for the 4 which I don’t think is bad as it’s a drive in drive out. :beer:

I’ll give them a call, I was quoted @ £90 - £120 per corner, depending on work required. A couple of mine are quite bad, one not so bad & one hardly anything.

I think it’s the diamond cutting that takes the time. I had a couple of standard alleys refurbed by a Rotherham company a few years ago & they had them sorted in a few hours, one even had to be re-shaped as they said it was oval.

Might have to wait a while anyway - credit card is still in shock after Christmas :thumbdown:

Cheers Chris, I think we’ve been on with this for some time now haven’t we. Maybe one day, I won’t have some heavy bill hanging over me, and I will get my finger out & get something done. :eusa-think:

Like my OH says (on a very regular basis) they’re still round aren’t they? Why do they need anything doing to them?

It’s a difficult point to argue with :helpme:

I had the wheels on my 508 GT refurbished (diamond cut and re coated) 19" style 12s, I paid £340 from CJ powder coating in Grimsby. They did a good job.
