Looking to refurbish 5-spoke 15" alloys of a Mini Cooper One. Can you recommend me a good repair place in NW London, please?

These guys are very good, FAWheels

Or Paul, at MotorMech, told me there was a good service local to him (Brum).

Do they need a repair or just a refurb? I know of a couple of place who just deal in weld repair.. Not local to you though!! Ones in Kent and the other is in York..

Just a simple refurb is needed.

I'm in need of someone who can press/bash/persuade a deformation of the rim back so it's circular again... ideally for less than the cost of a new wheel.

FAWheels did a spectacular job on my wheels, all four were badly buckled, and i thought beyond repair. When i got them back they were like new and perfectly balanced. All four straightened, stripped, sand blasted and powder coated for £250.

Thanks.

This company have a good reputation. Hertfordshire based, I had 4 plus alloys refurbed there and they did a superb job on them (slightly cheaper if paying by cash).

thanks, I will give FAW a try.

My dads garage (www.autovilla.co.uk) use Spit and Polish who collect the wheels aswell if you like.

They are usually pretty good and reasonable price.

Agree with the above, we used them on BMWs when I worked at a main dealer, the best refurb I've seen.
