[ellwise69]

How much are we talking here? got some serious corrosion on my standard vtr alloys, how much realistically to refurb all 4? :panic:

Couldnt tell you mate, i wouldnt mind mine getting re-done tbh

[jeeves_101]

is quite easy to do it yourself mate, just time and effort really, then the cost of, sand paper, primer, paint etc.

or for a full blown wheel refurb company, upto £50 per wheel i expect.

my dad has a friend who does it, and for bead blasting back to bare alloy, cleaning, fixing/filling etc, and a repaint in your chosen colour is £35-40 per wheel.

would vtr alloys in a darker colour look good on icelandic grey saxo? Just wondering :y:

£40 each, £160 in total had mine done in white.

darker colours go well with icelandtic grey like athracite or pug cossack grey or lighter colours like white

If the wheels are corroded it may be cheaper to get another set of rims!

Jebus! I was quoted £65 a wheel! Thinking about doing it myself, but £160 sounds more reasonable if I can find somewhere that does it at a good price.

£24.50 a wheel from the wheel refirb place near me http://www.wheelrefurbishing.com/
