Fecking bassas :evil:

I need to get an estimate for new wheels to shove up the councils rectum. I think the damage is beyond a refurb, anywhere I can go online that could maybe give me a quote? I know they are hard to get now.

Oh crap..hope it isn't that bad and you don't have to get a new set.

Only place I know have them is RCM. Only 1 original set left there.

My wheels were never 100% one had a bit of blistering starting and a another had a few scuff marks but now at least 2 have gouges out of them. I hit one so hard I'm surprised the tyre didn't burst!
Thing is if I get them replaced it's probably just as likely to happen again.

Do you have a link to RCM ? I cant find it :oops:

Adam from Autotechnica put a thread on here as one was being broken up... phone them and see if they have any wheels off the damaged car!?!?

Worth a try!

RogerClarkMotorsport....I am sure you know the missing bits.

They have the gold and bright colours still but the original pewter grey ones are like rocking horse shit.

Paid around 980 quid for a set of 4...they come with the Prodrive centre caps and a set of wheel nuts too.

Wasn't there a WR1 getting broken?

Maybe contact them and see if you can get an alloy?

I have 2 spare Prodrive wheels, genuine ones too :wink:

they're both well scuffed up so need refurbed, and 1 has a slight kink on the outer edge but it can easily be sorted according to my mate who does it for a living

If you were getting the alloys refurbed, (mine are a disgrace) would whoever was doing the work manage to get the correct colour as i dont want them looking greyer i like the tone.
Clark i have bought some Fire over ice and things from you ages back, i will be needing 4" pads for my rotary on a side note.
Does anyone have a recommendation or experiance for refurb in Aberdeen/shire.
My front alloys are mondo damaged. spokes are ok just paint has craked.

PPS in Inverurie did my wheels, although I got mine done in quite a light silver colour as it makes the car look cleaner in my opinion

have heard they are really good and well priced.

did you take the whole car over or just the alloys??
Although may fancy some 19" O.Z superleg 3 lloys instead.
my rear right has a gouge out of it. Car was owned from new by female , there are no dings in doors and interior smells nice but wheels are fooked.
