CITY WHEELS REFURBISHMENT BIRMINGHAM

It's hard to tell from the picture but it looks like at least one front star has more dish than the rear which would be incorrect...
 
Kev has just been round to show me these, as i want/need my 107's doing. THEY ARE MINT! How they can do it for the price is beyond me, and i'll be booking mine in with them ASAP! top job.

BTW Kev, i forgot to see your LED interior bulbs, so will contact you about coming to see you next week to have a look, (where did you get them from btw?) and have a brew before i head off to Portofino on my holibobs.

Has anyone done the one day, drive in, drive out service? How were the results.

For the money, it's worth driving over to Birmingham to get this done!
 
They look superb ,is this the city wheels at Benacre Street ,Digbeth .If it is I think I now know were to get our 326`s refurbished thanks for the advice and pics :driving: :thumbsup:
 
I've just had a set done locally at £60 a rim and they look good.

I have two other sets I'm tempted to get done. Could drive a car over and get the whole lot done for £300 on their same day service. Very tempting.

I've e-mailed them to see when their earliest bookings are.

Hi Kev,

I'm looking at using City Wheels for my 108s - did you experience any problems during reassembly, like issues with the paint thickness affecting the fit of the two parts of the wheel together?

Did you have to provide anything to mask the bolt holes in the rim before they were painted, and/or did you need to re tap the holes to clean out any paint?

Many thanks

Chris

no had no problem with paint thickness I put the bolts back in barrels so no probs with threads others have used wooden plugs if you don't want paint on bolts apart from that no problem just make sure you add thread lock and torque correctly when you reassemble and check stars are correct to each wheel :thumbsup:
 
Having parked up next to Kev at Zedfest I can say they look mighty impressive in the flesh. Amazing price for refurb, only downside is that you have to remove tyres (if I've got that right?)

Good to know :thumbsup:
 
Mine were done last Monday

Dropped the car off at 08.00 and collected it at 17.00 - total cost £180.00 for 4 MV2s.

Brilliant service and a really friendly team :thumbsup:

More than happy to recommend them https://www.citywheelrefurbishment.co.uk/

Did you book in? I've contacted them by email but not received a response.
 
I have to go down to Birmingham every couple of weeks, so on one occasion I called in and had a chat and then booked myself in for a fortnights time.

To be honest, it is a bit of an "old school" place, so email may not be the best way to make contact. If you can't call in, I'd suggest ringing them.
