So as some of you know that I picked up a set of wheels that are white at the moment and want to get them stripped and redone to a high standard. I know a few lads got wheels done was leaning to one crowd but still open to ideas if any want to let me know how ye got on I?d appreciate it. And a rough idea of cost as I got a price today and was fairly Hefty
Thanks in advance [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

There's 2 ways of looking at price ,

Do a cheap job and regret it

Do an expensive job and never look back ,

Granted the second option might not go down with the wife if she finds out :thumbsup:
 
Wheel wizards do great work but aren?t cheap. Carlow coatings are also excellent and are a bit cheaper. I got a set of 2 piece BBS R90?s blasted and painted in a local place here for ?120 inc vat for the full set - very good finish but I split them and reassembled them myself and they didn?t need any filler etc.
 
I?ve had several sets done by wheel wizards, always 110%.
I don?t find them expensive at all, considering the quality of work done.

I like things done right first time with no messing so they are perfect in my opinion.
 
I think I?ll go with wheel wizards I did ring them last week price was very good I thought. this other place got back to me for an additional 160 quid more than wheel wizards. Which I thought was a bit considering the work ww do

On the color was going to go the gun metal grey
 
I went with wheel wizards to Gary.

Great service and quality work.

They have two gun metal colours, dark and light.

My revo,s got done in light if you want to see the color on your car.
 
I was hoping to match the original speeline color same as Tommy?s Had a dark turnis wheel up at car before was nice but I?ll see how I get on.

Johnny thanks for the offer appreciate it I should be ok [emoji106]
 
Thanks lads will go with them as soon as I get the tyres ordered as I want them to put them on the finished rim
 
wheel wizards or carlow coatings seem to be the main two people mention

can i ask what you were quoted from both ? as you know i also have a set of white turini's wanting similar gunmetal colour (even before i saw tommys ) , i jus havnt got the finger out .
 
Used Carlow coating myself and they did a great job and yes cheaper than wizards but they didn't remove or remount tires balance them ect..and that all adds up

When I rang them wheel wizards they did it all and all you do is collect them and bang them back onto car so not a big difference in cost in the end something to consider[emoji108]

Yes I rang Carlow today sound lad very decent to talk to but as Ciar?n said have to do that with tyres and to me that?s where most damage can happen and have had previously got wheels back with lumps out of them so I?ll be going with one stop shop WW and I can get color to them for one I want so that?s the way to go
