Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Most places charged about 50 quid a wheel as far as I know.

    I had the wheels on my Range Rover done and it cost 170 a wheel, theree 22" so i'm guessing yours would be a bit less. Ask at any good body shop, thats where i got mine done

    Collins engineering bray. Brilliant workmanship for 5 cruiser wheels that were badly aged. 380 for the 5 incl fitting new Tyres that I supplied and balancing.

    How many days would the paint on them need to set? Would you have to get other wheels in the mean time? I did a bit of a DIY paint job on one of my alloys as I damaged the paint surface when mounting a kerb one day. I didnt make a good job of it and now I just want to get it done professionally. They are not in bad state of repair but Id like to get them done.

    Depending on where you go and what clear coat/lacquer they use. The stuff I use dries in about 20 minutes per wheel, but some bodyshops prefer to leave it bake overnight.

    The most important question is where are you based, and we can all recommend places to go then.
