Hello
Can body repair shops refurbish alloy wheels with their facilities? Only that my car is going to bodyshop soon to get spoiler fitted & wheels need doing due to scuff here & there & corrosion but the nearest wheel refurbisher is called Rochford tyres Essex that do good work i seen but they say there is no fitment for my specific car - a 2001 Lexus IS200. so therefore no loan wheels i can use. Its not bought from Lexus so no warranty from Lexus.

yep, any good body repair centre should be able to tidy up your wheels.
what you will loose though is the Diamond cut finish on the rim edge and spokes.
if you dont mind that, you can ask them to paint them whatever shade of silver you require, with a good coat of clearcoat.
ive had a few wheels done at bodyshops, and the finish was perfect
