Can anyone recommend somewhere to get my monzas refurbed diamond cut? Also what's the rough cost for a set of 4?
Cheers

Search for 'the wheel specialist' in Newcastle. Have had a few sets done there and quality is very good compared to most others in the region.

Spoke to Tony, they don't do diamond cut finish. For £70 +VAT per wheel they'll refurb the wheel to the current finish.
One of the fellas at work mentioned SEM in Sunderland, does anyone have any experience with them??

I wouldnt bother with SEM to be honest. They tend to send most of their stuff out to other people to get done, thats why they take so long to get back off them. 1 day at the wheel specialists, a week at sem...................

I have used SEM in the past, I now go to the wheel specialist which is an extra 45 mins drive, draw your own conclusion

Cheers for all the advice.
I phoned SEM who were charging £55 +VAT per corner. I guess you get what you pay for. I rather leave it the way it is at the minute that pay for a half a@@ed job!!
