I'm guessing between £50 and £100 a wheel?

Fenwick quoted me £50+vat per wheel but mine are just corroded all to hell, not nicked and chipped.

Can you not let them see Matt's shots of the your wheels first, Paul, to give them some idea of the damage, before giving you a quote?

Could save you a bit of time, maybe?

Fax & email them, then ring them to get them to check their fax & email.

Paul - bloke has just repaired mine and done a pucka job. £25 cash, but as I said mine was literally scuffed so not too much repair work required. He doesn't go to York either, said there's another bloke has that area.

Looks like you're sorted anyhow, so good luck.

beemerbird · 04-13-2008, 11:31 AM

Paul, how you getting on with getting your wheels repaired then?

- Paul - · 04-13-2008, 01:19 PM

Was supposed to drop them yesterday but other things got in the way. Will try them again this week.

- Paul - · 04-15-2008, 05:49 AM

Going to drop them in on Thursday now.

beemerbird · 04-25-2008, 04:20 AM

Paul, are you pleased with the results then?

- Paul - · 04-25-2008, 05:42 AM

Yes - had them both repaired by a place at Elvington which is a lot closer to me.

Both repaired for around £75 all in. I still need to clean them but yes - pleased with the results. If I get chance this afternoon - will clean the motor ready for the meet and post some pics of the wheels then.

SoYank · 04-27-2008, 02:30 PM

They looked great, Paul.

Anyone know any companies around the Glasgow area? I kerbed one of my old Radial alloys and want to repair it to see if I can get some cash for the set. Tyres have only done 6,500 miles so it might be a bargain for someone who wants to upgrade their standard wheels.
