U will pay about £35 a rim....so x 4.

U also in most cases have to get tyres taken off then refitted after refurb..

Nah there is a place by me..Mobile guy called wicked wheels..HE DOES NOT NEED tyres removed..
Obviously though with tyres removed will be a better job. But I have seen his work and it looks spot on. Don't know how he does it like wi tyres on..And comes to your house and puts car on stands...Does it in back of a big van..
