Star spoke alloy wheels - reburbishment advice required

ceetdm · 5th September 2011, 15:36

Hi,

I'm thinking of having my liquid silver (MBS), star spoke alloys (RRC005420MBS) refurbished and wondered if anyone has had this done? I would like them powder coated and would like the original liquid silver finish, so that the wheel centres are matched - anyone know who might be able to do this?

Any advice gratefully accepted :-)

Have a look through Detailing World

There's a few recommendations from Scotland

I have my sets of Star Spokes done at BJV Engineering, see here:

http://www.wheelrefurbishing.com/OLDSITE/contact.htm

The nearest colour they have to Liquid Silver is 'Bright Silver'. Give them a call, ask for Lindsey, and say I recommended you contact them. Should be arround £40 per wheel plus VAT.

They do a good job

. This is a Serpent finished in Bright Silver for facelift cars.

Thank you both for the advice/info, I've decided to go another winter before the refurbish.

This is something on my to do list, I'm looking at going gunmetal for my alloys, not sure of the style? ZT 160 wheels? Can anyone suggest someone in west Yorkshire?
