Alloy wheel refurbs

Some of my wheels have been refurbed twice - anybody know how often an alloy can withstand refurbishing? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Last winter and this winter when I have had the 19" wheels on the car I have taken the kerbed rims into a company in Stirling who have done them within a couple of days. Last year they ahd all 4 wheels for a week , this year 2 wheels took them 3 days. These guys are in Springkerse. I was wondering how many times I could get away with them being repaired before I had to think about buying a new set................... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Cant answer that, suppose it would depend on how bad you had kerbed them previously and how much they had to smooth off, but the company in Perth is called Perth Powder coating and his name si Brian. Give him a call he would be able tell you 2010 Alaska white 3.6TDi v8, heated steering wheel, Ipod connection, Aribica extended leather, Digital TV, voice activation, privacy glass, Dynamic pack

If they are not bent you should be able to have them refinished as often as you need. They are repaired and filled if needed then painted and coated with clear. I just had my right front done for the 2nd time cost $110 US dollars. mike murphy

Alloy wheel refurb

If any one wants their wheels immaculately refurbished, and they live within reasonable distance of Tonbridge (Kent) then have a word with 'Spit and polish' I've just had my 20" Stormers done - as new!! Thumbs Up

I have just had a set 20" OF super sports refurbed. The guys in Nottingham have than a stunning job. The wheels look virtually like new for a fraction of the price I was quoted by OF. Excellent job - well recommended Thumbs Up
