Now there's a good case for DIY. My centres were OK, and it cost me no more that time and about Â£10 in materials and that included the torx bit.

I would say it's a straight forward polish.

I have 2 say i don't like the sound of these mobile/do it in one day jobs. I know i'd need another set of wheels or have 2 leave the car but this seems to quick to do a decent job.

It would be done in their workshop, the mobile one would be more for curbed wheels.

With a full overhaul, it would take far too long to do it on a van.

It says that a lot of Jaguar dealers use them.

As I noted above, the work I had done to my OZs by a mobile Wicked Wheels guy was superb. I genuinely couldn't tell you where on those wheels they were kerbed.

All it means is they work a lot more efficently and get them turned round faster.
