do you mind me asking where they were done and cost? did they coat the mating faces because i understand it is important they don't.

I must have had 20 sets of 108s refurbed , always powdercoated & always mating faces done , otherwise i could only imagine a rapid lifting of paint from where they meet .
i never had any issues pairing them back up or bolting them back up .
The rims do need plugging where the bolt threads are before any blasting / painting though

All done Mr Wilks - all plugged and mating faces coated too. I did the current set of 108's that are on my car the same way. There's been no issues.

I got mine done there too and whilst it was a a bit tight pushing some of the stars back in there were no problems as such.
