Sorry if this has been done to death but can anyone recommend a good wheel refurb shop close to me (Canterbury Kent) ?
Cheers :thumb:
 
Not quite so local, but there's a place in Crawley that was recommended to me called Wheel Works.
 
There is a place in Westgate on Sea called Body & Wheels. 01843 834982.
They charged £50 per wheel for a full strip and powder coat refurb a few months ago, and several of my mates locally in the trade use them regularly. You can leave the car with them and pick up two days later fully refurbed at about half what Lepsons charge. I have also used Lepsons Gillingham for my AMG wheels, who offer excellent service albeit at double the price.

Yay that's a bit more local, will give them a ring in the morning and see whats what.
Many thanks for the info, much appreciated. :thumb:

Have to check out a couple of firms a little closer first but many thanks for the info, nice to have some recommendations and a few to choose from.:thumb:
 
Had my 968 wheels done by Rimtec Meopham, excellent job but sometimes difficult to contact. The 17" AMG's I bought were stripped and powder coated by KAP in Folkestone, they also did a very good job.

Only problem I found with the 968 wheels was that the paint on the inside of the hub made the wheels difficult to remove, had to rubber mallet them off (with a fight) then dremmel/flap wheel the hub part before re-fitting.
