Rough price per wheel or all 4 18" wheels, done in Anthracite?

Also once all painted nicely and I want to have 4 new tyres fitted.
How carefully can they fitted by the local tyre monkey?.

I've had standard wheels scratched on the machine that puts the sidewall into the rim.

Does any place/franchise offer a kind of guarantee they won't be marked? or is this impossible.

most places who refurb wheels will fit the tyres for a little extra, at least if they scratch it they can fix it again

if you take them to a little independant tyre fitters, not a kwikfit type, they'll be as careful as you ask them to.

NO wheels should ever be scratched from fitting tyres, unless the paint is fresh (and i mean REALLY fresh)

Iaz the wheels would be brand new ones.

that seems a good price and I'll defo keep you in mind once I decide to get a new car.

Just planning ahead for rough cost on parts and mods on a new car that I would want before selling up the Corsa.
