Here's a thought, you could always have a go yourself, I've done several sets of wheels in my time. Take them to a place that can shot blast them (probably around £20 per wheel), prepare/smooth them down, paint and lacquer them and hey presto...as good as new!

Best wishes,

SATAN AVOID JOHN

I have found Spit & Polish in Tonbridge to be the best.

I use a company called Sweeny and Sherlock in Birmingham,

Stephen has seen the quality of their work on a set of A610 wheels I had done,

All in £200 the set and that includes the centre caps....... powder coated in silver, not paint and laquer which doesn't last.

you can choose different finishes if you want but that bumps up the price!


their buisiness is powder coating and they do wheels as a sideline, they will only take on curb damage at the worst but if your wheels are buckled you should scrap em anyway!

You don't need to get them blasted .Get some paintstripper on them and it comes off a treat 8) 'tis a bit messy but costs little :D I have just done my atmo wheels this way ,I did get them slightly blasted afterwards, more to give a key and get rid of some stubborn bits .

Spit and Polish are very good and do local pickups all over the place. They did my A610 wheels earlier this year. You need to tell them if you want "show" quality of finish otherwise it will be good but not perfect. 8)
Driving an A610 is just so sublime.
