@ jonnyrad...sounds like a good deal to me! by stockton I presume you mean stockton on tees? if so, that's not too far from my hometown of Newcastle...might consider them when I'm next home.

certainly is stockton on tees :) near BIG W
 
i'd do'em for you but i think your a bit far away.. usually charge 40 pound a wheel.. includes acid dipped, bead blasting, zinc primer coat and a top coat and laquer... i cant really refurb though i,e filling etc...

Below are my own alloys which i did, they were kerbed but i just grinded the lip and smoothed it down to straighten them out

Thanks v much for the offer eazi_now, but yeah, like you said...bit far away! They really need filling too, the previous muppet kerbed them loads, so no chance of a simple respray unfortunately!

Rach.
 
if you want something powder coated dont go to a wheel specialist, just go to a powder coating place... £50 for the 4 sounds about right from a paint shop...

You get mugged off at specialists :/
 
Ey?? £50 for 4 wheels powdercoated??? I was under the impression they were gona be about £30-40 per wheel!!! (Not refurb) Where the hell does 4 wheels for £50 like?? any 1 know anywhere up in the north east?? If so, I'll get them done on the weekend..
 
I know a place in burton that charges 20-25 a wheel (a mate had some 15s done black @ £20 a wheel and i know some one else who had 18s black @£25 a wheel) for powder coat dont think that included any refurb.
 
well ive just rang a local place I know, and they quoted me £35 per wheel, but I know I could haggle it with cash lol, but the thing is, they said the turn around at the min is friggin 7 days!!!! So I said I'll let them know, what happened to this £50 for 4 wheels malarky?? You sure your not thinking of a tyre or something?? lol...
 
righto.... Ive just been on the dog and bone to BBT (NE) located in Sunderland (Pallion) and they said they'll powdercoat 4 GTi 15" rims White for £20 per wheel and they can have my wheels back on my car within 24 hours...

Looks like im gona be popping down there when I have a spare minute.. Ive rang about 8 or 9 different places in the last 15 mins, however this was deffo the cheapest, and I know I know cheapest isnt always best, thats why Im gona go down there and check them out first coz you know Im gona be knocking that price down lol...

just wondering, has any 1 else been to or know of any1 thats used their services??
