Default Alloy wheel refurb- what it cost?

How much roughly does it cost to get a set of 9x17" splitrims refirbed? Ive no idea.

Polished outers and silver inners, nothing fancy.

The "do i keep my rims or get some 10x18 MO's" question...

i just dropped my 3dr rims into lepsons today, and since the 1st of june (Typical!)the price has gone up to £50 a wheel +VAT. So my set of 4 wheels is costing me 235 inc VAT, and they do a really good job as i saw a few he had recently done. try them, but i think a set of 17's id gunna cost a little bit more.

I just dropped my split rims off today steve.

Having the centres wet painted, due to the magnessium, and the back silver.

Thats costing me £120 for all 4.

Then i just gotta get the outta rims re-polished.

Cants see that being more than £10-15 per rim.

Pristeena (no not Pristene) did my old 17s for £150, total refurb and re-paint. Based somewhere around the A1 near Baldock Services.
Did a damn good job of them, think collection/delivery cosst me an extra £20.
