Wheels finally sorted... hopefully

Post by Bryony84 »

Got my tracking done today in my lunch hour. The guy doing it said it was pretty far out!

It drives so much better now - feels so much more stable!

Now all I have to do is find a refurber for my BBS. Found a bodyshop near me that does refurbing for £60 a wheel, does that sound like a good deal?

normal price, for a professional job, anything from 35-70 is average..shop around a bit and check out their previous jobs to see how good they really are

I imagine yours would be slightly more expensive because they are two piece rims with powder coated centers and polished lips

I'm pretty sure the site said it was £60 flat charge per wheel, split rim or otherwise so thats not bad. This is their site.
