Can anyone recommend somewhere to get my wheels refurbished in the south of England, preferably Berkshire?

Also, has anyone actually managed to get wheels refurbished and the logos replaced/retained?

And finally, how loing would it take to get all 4 wheels refurbished?

TIA,

Dave

Dave,
these are the people mine came from (replaced by CCC under warranty). No luck with the logos though. Must admit, don't even notice they're missing now.

Try Micheldever Tyres.

Had mine refurbished by their Bristol branch (Pro-tyre)

Paid £40.00 plus VAT per wheel and was very impressed with the quality.

They say that they have used several different companies and their current one is by far the best.

I hope none of your guys are doing any track days!

This is the most silly and dangerous thing I have seen on this forum.

What are you on about?? Are you concerned about sub-standard lacquer being re-applied to my wheels?

Don't know about cutting some new tread with a soldering iron, I just had my fronts changed after I noticed canvas poking out on the inner rim, bit of a laser tracking session as well.
