Unless it's a very special wheel or you have a mate in the trade it will probably be cheaper to replace it. I was quoted about 150 quid to get a tech 2 wheel retrimmed 8O

This is the only 1 I found on ebay.de You can trust him he even gives a 2 year guarantee but it will cost about Ԛ£120 better getting a new one

a new tech 2 is about 200 quid, and if you sell your old tech 2 (assuming that what wheel you have) for about 70 quid then thats only 130 quid on a brand new wheel which is probably much cheaper than getting one retrimmed
