I picked up my refurbished wheels yesterday which have my new tyres fitted too.

I'd recommend Platinum Coatings in Trafford Park (they are on FB too) - £200 for 4 including tyres off/on.

The gloss on them is unreal but doesn't really show in this photo.

Are they sprayed or powder coated and are they OEM colour?

They are powder coated and are almost exact, comparing it to the spare wheel that I have.

Looking to get mine done too. If I can get that finish for £200 I'd be very happy.

A better photo here, still the wrong way round though, just to confuse you!

I still need to get them balanced though as they are centreless and they don't have the adapter.

Great value though, all in.

Interior sorted too now with newly installed after market arm rest.


Only engine and box and brakes all round to complete it. Then it's MOT time.

Nice one, bro. You should put it all in a 'project' thread and put all your updates on there. It's good for your reference and others may find it interesting also Thumbs up

You get what you pay for at end of day.

I’ve had some done at £200 for and they’re ok, but ones I’ve paid more are better than original in my eyes
