Just a quick recommendation for anyone in the Brighton/West Sussex area who's looking for a quality refurb - I've just got mine back from 'Wheels Like New' (Hove). Cracking job and an incredibly quick turn around considering the amount of damage. (R)

I can't beat Gm8, I paid £45 per wheel (for a full refurb, respray in Audi White and the removal of a slight buckle to one rim), which I thought was pretty good :)

In hindsight, I really should have taken some before/after pics!

Coilovers or shocks and springs, I'm not too sure... :confused:

What was the turnaround on them? Was gonna head to laptab as they're highly recommended but a bender in Brighton sounds better than one in Birmingham:clap::clap:

Is this them as can't find a site of their own,came off a saab site....

Wheels like New
This guy is very good and very reasonable. He's refurbished 2 sets of Ronal alloys for me and did a superb job for only £38.00 a wheel.

Alloys or steel completely refurbished. Sandblasted, painted, polished and repaired. Sandblasting only from £12pw.

That's the one. As far as I know he (Chris - I think!?) doesn't have a website.

The turnaround - I dropped them off Monday morning, picked them up Tuesday lunchtime!

Best give him a bell on the landline, I think the mobile may be an old number?

They look smashing!

IVe been quoted a 'special' cash price of £200 notes by my local refurb guys, and thats only cos i know a guy that works there. All yours are much cheaper!!!!

I feel im being diddled!!!!!
