If they aren't too bad wait till after winter rather than get them caked in salt and crap from winter driving

Is that Pristine in Woburn Sands?? Is the colour a good match? I'm thinking getting them to do mine. How much did they charge?

That seems like more money than others have paid but I believe they loan you a set of wheels while yours are being done which is good.

One of tyres is always lossing pressure because the rim is corrorded and doesn't seal very well any more, could they sort that out?

im pursuing a set of refurbs from fred and when i get those refurnbs ill have my originals for a ltd time and will be able to do a comparison.... however, ive noticed some ppl kicking up a fuss over even the slightest deviation in colour after refurbs, too me as long as they are pretty good colour match im gona be happy cos its hardly as if i pack next to half a dozen williams' and ppl are gona say, "those wheels arent a perfect colour match"
