Wheel Refurb recommendation - Derby / Derbyshire

Post by JHW666 » Wed Jun 09, 2021 3:01 pm

Hi,

Looking for a bit of help and recommendations please.

Looking to get my alloys (19inch 296's) refurbished (one of them has a rim crack so needs welding). Any recommendations for a suitable reconditioner (ideally one who has loaner wheels) in the Derby area - or Derbyshire?

Many thanks
John

Hey John,

I'm based in Nottingham and just had my alloys diamond cut at The Wheel Specialist today, they have done a fantastic job after me abusing the car daily for 7 years.

£336.00 for the alloys themselves to be diamond cut, but came out in total to £393.60 because of balancing (incs VAT in these amounts).

They're based at Unit 1 Harrimans Lane, Alcester Street, Nottingham, NG7 2UR, located behind showcase if that helps.

Thanks for that Jack,

In the end used Speedy’s wheels in Derby. They were able to provide a loan set of wheels for the car which was a must have for me. At first glance you look at their facilities and think ‘oh my god what am I doing here!’ But their service was spot on, the quality is excellent and they were on time. I had 4 296s refurbed, including a weld repair, and they were the same price as everyone else, but they included a loan set of wheels - so happy days!
Cheers

Wheel specialists Birmingham quoted me £90 per corner.

I've found a place in Aldridge that does the set for £180!
