Edition 30 BBS Pescara wheel refurbishment

[AmaratD]

Hi all,

Im a newbie on here, recently picked up my Edition 30.

I have just been quoted £550 for full refurbishment of all 4 wheels as they are in pretty bad state.

I was told as they are special coated wheels they are more expensive to refurbish.

Can anyone guide me to a recommended refurb company?

All help would be appreciated :)

That sounds a bit dodgy to me! I recently paid £220 to have all four of my 18's powdercoated. I don't think the Pescara's have a 'special finish'

Usually you should be looking at about £60 a wheel.

who quoted you £550?

I live in a small village caled Burnham just outside of slough and the company AutoWeks is based in slough trading estate.

They requested my wheels for 3 days as well even though their website states maximum 2 days.

They told me the edition 30 wheels are special edition wheels therefore is not a straight forward refurb and would require a special coat which makes the job expensive.

Go to MyAlloys in Basingstoke. £55 per wheel.

Thanks for your reply Hedge.

I have since just browsed the previous forums and read about this company mywheels.

How do they compare with silverline wheels and wheels specialists?

Lepsons in Kent, The pescara has got a slightly different finish as its not a standard silver. Older posts on here will reveal the paint code was/is very hard to come by.

£100 fresh powdercoated any colour I want and shot blasted before hand mine were terrible too and they turned out better than new!!

Whereabouts in Suffolk would you get some wheels restored and will lend some others ?

[Leonpettit]

To get a colour match they have to be wet painted not powder coated.

I've spoke to 3 different places and all said the same thing. Hence the price.

+1 for MyAlloys who refurbed by BBS VZ's from the Bristol branch, great service and they fitted all 4 tyres for a tenner beer money.

run for the hills £550 what a joke.

i've never paid more than £250 for powder coated 18's
