right, my alloys are a bit scuffed and chipped etc, which i expect for thier age, but my question for you all is this:
shall i have them refurbished (and if so how much per wheel) or get some more from someone (a little vague i know) and how much would this cost.
i think that i want them to remain standard as i quite like them (despite thier 90's look) unless someone knows of some cracking / reasonably prices wheels what look better?

cheers

I'd be tempted to have them refurbed rather than buy new ones.

I was quoted around £230 for all four wheels at spit and polish (based in Tonbridge). You can drop your car off with them and collect it later. They have a very good reputation and their refurb service is a full wheel service (not just outside of the wheel like at some places) - Think they do a full prep and powdercoat the wheel.

Spit and Polish Website

I'll be having mine done there when I have the time/money!

excellent. thats not far from me at all. at least one has a bit of a chunk missing from the edge, they can fix this too?

£230 is do-able...

From what they said to me when I spoke to them, I think so, but it will probably depend on how big the chunk is.

I thought £230 was good too - Let me know how you get on!
