www.wheelworksuk.co.uk  in crawley near gatwick airport for the south east. Did a good job on a mates r32 wheels which where buckled and needed to be refurbed, also did a good job on my ex bosses bmw wheels which had to be welded and he had them refurbed a different colour.

Recently had all 4 wheels repaired and front two tyres (PS3's) replaced by Lepsons in Gillingham. Very pleased with the results.

I got a quote form Wheel Works in Crawley to finish them smoked chrome for approx £250 as they wouldn't diamond cut the face because they wouldn't be able to guarantee the work. He actually convinced me to get the normal powder coating because he reckons the first place the diamond face cut Monzas start to lift is around the nut holes when garages change the tyres.

One weekend soon I am going to treat her and get the alloys refurbed and new tyres at the same time. Cant wait, the wheels are the only thing that let my cars looks down  :grin:
