Wheel refurb-north east

Hey up,

I was wondering if anyone could help.

I'm after getting my wheels done and had 'romax' in Northallerton recommended to me as they are supposed to be top notch, however I can't find then in Northallerton. Found another wheel refurb place there but not romax, had a search on here and theres mentions of a romax in Middlesbrough.

Am I barking up the wrong tree? Or can somebody point me in there direction??

I want all four wheels doing in the standard silver colour they come in (cupra wheels) and for them to be a good job, so if romax in northallerton is non-existant then could anyone recommend somewhere good in the north eastish area?

Cheers.

Stella blast in Chester le St will refurb and powder coat as a set of 17" wheels for £180.
Also, Betta blast in Shiremoor will do it for the same price iirc.

Where are you in the North East?

I have used and would recommend Romax at Portrack Lane in Stockton/Middlesbrough. I think they were approx £45 per wheel when we used them in 2008.

Cheers pal, sounds like they are worth a look?

I'm from Whitby so driving up to Boro is nothing really, how long did they have your car for when you got all four wheels done??

We had a spare set of wheels on the car, so just dropped them off. I think they took a day or less to do 4.

I took some pics before and after. As you can see they are 15 inch Gold Speedlines for my dad's Impreza. These had flaking paint and rim leaks.

After (also with new Vredestein Sportrac 3 tyre on)

The wheel on the car is a 16" Subaru with worn winter tyres on. The Gold colour is not a good colour match. All 4 now do not leak air.
