Hi guys can anyone recommend to me a really good wheel efurb place in the west mids? Also how much do you think this will cost? I want the wheels to have a polished edge with a painted centre and they are 15 inch. Cheers.

nah, that was a mixture of me, curbs and a lazy re-sprayer!
When they came out from the refurb I was happy with the work.

I used the wheel specialist's in Leeds and they did a very good job. I had a TWS Sport 2 finish for my 15inch alloy's and also the bolts and it came to £310. Only took one day and the wheels were in a really bad state before they went

Also managed to get them to replace all my tires at the same time and rebalance them
