Thanks slimy, sorry I ain't been on atm, stupid uni work
Well if you ring they should be able to tell you mate
And £39.50? You can get it much cheaper for hotel, there is an etap not far etc
Really if there is a place closer it might be better off, as petrol is gonna be a good £20-30 right?

Really good guide, mine were kerbed over christmas. Considering doing black with a red rim to match my interior, but unsure if i should DIY it or go pro?

you might as well try DIY
as for the trim if you search "wheel tape" on ebay, you can get it already done, so just choose the thickness, and your on your way :)

This took me 3 hard days. I suppose it depends how thorough you are going to be cleaning and preping your wheels.
