    Wheel Refurb - Just pick up!

    I had my 4th wheel refurbed with Spit & Polish in Kent (£52), came recommended. I wanted them to match the colour of the other three but it has come out a little darker, may well be the correct colour and my other 3 are wrong. The main issue though is they have diamond cut the rim incorrectly, rather than just the 1cm outer rim they have done the full 2.5cm rim as well, am i right in thinking this is wrong. I will post pictures tomorrow so show what I mean.

    Sounds wrong to me mate, just the actual rim should be diamond cut. Take them back and make them do it again!

    If Stromba is ok with them they must be ok. My colour should be good then just the rim that wants fixing. See you at the next meet Fatboy!
