Alloy wheel refurbishment advice.
I am possibly thinking about have the alloy wheels on my ZT-T refurbished sometime this year. If I decide to have them done it will need to be somewhere local to me as I will need to have the wheels removed off my car and leave it with them whilst the wheels are done.
Has anyone used this company? http://www.proalloys.co.uk Also does anyone have any thoughts about wheel colour such as going for original sparkle silver or something different? Thanks Clyde |

I've seen worked carried out by these on other forums and it looks of very high quality and the posters were immensely happy with the results

Personally Clyde, I would stick to silver for your car, but it's your decision

I tend to agree, wheels should be silver, or in certain circumstances black, grey wheels etc always look dirty in my opinion.
Factory sparkle silver is my vote. |

Thanks for the reply Jordan, it is really good to know other people have had their wheels done and been happy with the results.

Website looks good, courtesy cars available ( a rarity) and prices about normal.
They are not a franchise which I believe is good.... Choice of colour Silver Sparkle, having seen various newly refurbished wheels in this finish at meets, done well they look superb. |

Silver sparkle every time. I have used this finish on jaguar alloy wheels when re-furbishing as well. Anything else looks dull and dirty! Cannot stand black or grey finishes under any circumstances!

I agree with the other posts, Silver only!
My 11's are going for refurb tomorrow. Sparkle silver, with a pearlescent lacquer, for added "colour flip" in the sunshine if we ever get any.
