Well after searching for a place to refurb my 108s and looking at around the £300 to £400 mark with a recommendation from a forum member I called city wheels Birmingham and the advised £25 per wheel what's the catch I thought so at £100 I thought nothing lost nothing gained so dropped wheels off minus tyres on Friday morning but just a quick note need to be stripped first then once star removed bolts need to be put back in as to not get powder coat in threads. So Tuesday pm gets a text your wheels are ready for collection wow ok so picked up this morning and to say I am impressed with my £100 wheels is a understatement they look fab I have gone with sparkle silver for the barrels and mid grey for the stars there are lots of colours to choose from so each to there own I suppose will post more picks once fitted hope this helps some ops save some cash to spend on more upgrades

mate 107s £20 you really can't go wrong

must say for £100 they look spot on... great job hope they look as good when fitted.

Result OP - they look great!

Really useful to know (for when my 108s start getting tired).

Alloys now assembled tyres getting fitted tomorrow and spacers going on with them thanks Simon blythe

They look brilliant Simon. When my 108s need refurbishment I will try these guys. When you re-assembled your wheels did you use a torque wrench?

yes they were torqued to 12.9nm and thread lock on each bolt time consuming but well worth it

That's interesting as I come down to Birmingham once a week and my MV2s need refurbishment. I'll ask them for a quote.

The only issue for me is that my Coupe is a daily driver so I'm looking for somewhere that does an same day service if possible.

Did you need to keep the spokes matched to the rim they were removed from?

Thanks for that helpful info.

I think they do a day service you would need to speak to them

no they are identical mix and match

Kev, the spokes are different for the front and rears mate... They are different because of the offsets, mr wilks should be able to confirm which is which.

All fitted with spacers and handles like a dream more than happy
