cooperman Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 this is not for me but have a friend that is after alloy wheels refurbing. is there any where localish to salisbury, or some where that does postage as well. he has had quotes of £100 per wheel, that seems a little much to me. just getting some info on the wheels from him so will update with that in a bit. im sure that the average was about £40 a wheel for 15" wheels solid black powder coated? any links would be good, thanks andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpsmith79 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 I had a quote of £175 for 4 16" wheels to be powder coated in white, but they were in Sheffield EDIT: Just noticed, that was to have the sandblasted as well for that price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheelRepair Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 The wheels look to be diamond cut. That really is a specialist wheel and should be done by someone who has a cnc lathe. We do a postal service and I'll happily have a chat with him about what needs doing etc. - all advice is free :-) He can contact me on here, via the website, ot via Facebook/WheelRepairUK Lesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s_pid Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Can recommend a place here in Yeovil. I have had cam covers and motorcycle parts done by them. Wheels are £40 each for powder coating. Also there is a place in Fareham called the wheel specialist. Chap there Vernon can do chrome finishing aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oMIKEYo Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I got quoted £55 per wheel plus a courtesy car. That was for custom colours so 2 different colours rather than all one. All one colour I can get done for £170 cheapest I've found. Mikey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperman Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 WRC, Lesley. why would it be a special job? maybe a stupid question but if going for one solid colour. there would be no turning involved so no use for a cnc lathe. would just be a matter of media blasting them and powder coating or painting? thanks for the help so far people. all info will be past on. tctech if you could find out that would be good. also it would be a post job up to him could you ask him if this would be ok? thanks all and if there is any more info any one has let me know andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planc Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 C.A.S coatings in Bradford charge £1 per " inluding sandblasting, not sure if they post though. 15" = £15 plus VAT per wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
