Alloy Wheel Refurbishment Before and Afters

[thepeteh]

Just thought I'd post some quick pictures of my alloys up as I had them refurbished by a local company today called Yorvik Engineering just outside York... thought some of you might find this interesting!

Very pleased with the finish and they give out 1 years warranty with their work.

Anyway, I'll let the pictures do the talking so here they are;

Befores;

Afters;

Thanks for looking

price?

I hate when wheel balance weights are on the outside, only utter moronic monkeys fit them there

 

[ZG002]

Yeah price lol, Need mine doing

 

[mk1_salami]

Looks great. About £45 a wheel?

 

[rgritchie]

Very impressive

 

[thepeteh]

The bloke commented on the crappy weights they use on the outside rim - I agree they look shoddy too.

Price ~£220 incl. VAT for all 4.

 

[thepeteh]

£55 per wheel.

 

[ZG002]

How long did it take them?

I don't have spare wheels for the car lol

 

[Mint_Sauce]

Very nice, looks like a perfect job! Do you know what sort of figure it would be for 18" split rims or is it a fixed price?

Is that overspray on the tyres?, its a nice refurb but somebody should inform them of the miracle that is newspaper

erm no,

They are new tyres and that is the stuff they use to help fit them.

The wheels will have been bare for refurb.

 

[thepeteh]

Brand new tyres, just the gunk and paper labelling from when they were fitted.

The wheels were removed for the refurb.

I need mine done badly, severe kerbage, and some bubbling on mine now.

 

[ZG002]

Mucky where did you get yours done?

 

[Begbie]

You now need to clean the car

 

[thepeteh]

Dropped them off on the Tuesday night and they were finished by last thing Wednesday.

Will be cleaning it before the weekend you cheeky bugger

 

[ZG002]

Might get mine done end of summer, Will be needing two new front tyres then anyway so can get them fitted at same time.

 

[Mucky_Pup]

Mucky where did you get yours done?

I haven't yet, but a place I keep hearing good things about is a place called romax in stockton, so might give them a ring at some point to see how much they want for 4 wheels.

S.E.M in Sunderland are quite good or so I'm told also.
