Mate, did they put new tyres on as well?
I've the same rims from the A1 (courtesy of Nousticles) and love'em.
Was that pic taken just after fitting but before driving? The car seems awfully high but mine's like that after I've swapped the rims and settles once I go round some corners. HARD! :evilgrin:

....It seems that I must have made quite an impression!
I wouldn't think twice about going there again, although it's extremely unlikely with my OZ's.
Pretty scary on arrival isn't it! Doesn't look like anywhere where they produce such good quality work : -

I left my ED30 there when it was two weeks old and I didn't sleep for three days! :surprised:
But they are true to their word and I have subsequently left my R32 with them and would not hesitate to do it again! :happy2:

Are you willing to share prices ?
I'm in the market for a refurb for my wife's Colt CZT alloys in a darker colour.
Presumably you have the option of leaving the car (at an additional price) or dropping the wheels off ?

thanks for all the comments... yes the place was a little scary looking. but the work can not be faulted!!!
as robin said its best to give him a call and mention that we sent you his way and he will look after you ;)

They look brilliant mate. Could i ask how much you paid? PM if you prefer. Wolves is only 15 mins away for me :smiley:

They look mint! Out of curiosity what wax is that by the wheels in the first picture? Is that what you used to give them and the car the shine?

the wax in the pictures is chemical guys wheel wax. seems to do the job once there are a few coats on. as for the paint work i use lusso oro

That place looks like a sh*t hole, lol. as the saying goes never judge a book by its cover. :laugh:
Your wheels look really good.
