Send them your old/kerbed/pitted alloys and they will send you some nice shiny ones.

Strike that ... Reverse it .... we send you the new shiny wheels first, you have them fitted, we collect your old scruffy ones.

I want to get my GS300's wheels done in the same colour, but may have to get them done one at a time, as I dont have any replacement wheels to use while they are being done......... unless someone can lend me a set for about a week.. :winky:

You need to exchange them, I'll send you a set in woteva colour you want

Is that ''exchange''/ ''send'' as in ''sell'' him a set, or are you offering to help him out, until he has his wheels refurbed

We send out a refurbished set, you have them fitted, we collect the old ones. Or you can drive to Blackpool, see before you buy. and we can fit them for you. This saves all the aggravation of having to take the wheels off your car and take them to the refurber. or at the very least leaving your car for a day.

If they do it in a couple of hours they're only wet-sprayng the outside of the wheel, beware our wheels are back to bare metal stripped and all over powder coated.

Gordon, would it be possible for you to post up some examples of your work?

Allowing members and others to gain an idea and opinion for themselves then...

Hi

One of the things that attracted me to the IS in the first place was the look of it standard. One of the highlights for me has always been the five spoke alloys which look the business B)

Unfortunately as many of you will know they dont stay that way for long.

BEFORE

Any marks you can see are just water drops.

After owning my IS for over a year and a half I have been dying to get the wheels sorted but have been put of by

a] not having any recomened companies in the area to do them

and

b] never having an opportunity to be without my car for a few days while the wheels are removed and refurbed.

After hearing good reports about Pristine I wanted them to do the job but it was 2 hours away from me (not exactly convienient). Then looking on their web site I saw they have the exchange program which made it a possiblility but I would still have to right off a day to drive down to Milton Keynes, then I noticed the fact that they had agents around the country.

Sorry wafferling a bit....

Anyway a quick call later and after all this time it turned out Pristine had an ageent 0.7 miles from my work in Doncaster!

They're called Tyre Torque 01302 88883 talk to Brian.

Anyway cause they were round the corner I popped in. Brian put in the call to Pristine and yes they had some they could send and he even took the time to take off a wheel as that was the best way to ensure the correct size was sent (apparently the five spoke is 7 or 7.5 wide (I didn't know that, and must admit wondered why there are two sizes, comments welcome!)

So that was Monday and I was expecting a call by the end of the week. On Wednesday I got the call so dropped the car of on Thurs morning. Specified which wheel i wanted to keep (only got 4 refurbs cause one is hardly used) all the tyre swopping was no trouble for Brian.

I picked it up at lunch time and was well cuffed with the new additions. The misses nicked the car that evening and I had to stand and watch it drive off all the way down the road cause it looked the buisness again!

AFTER

Cost was £55 per wheel which included fitting, swapping tyres and balancing, I noticed that Tyre Torque have a nice mordern looking balancing machine and after a quick blast down the motorway confirmed without a doubt that everthing is running smooth as a babies bum :) (hardly any garage seems to do a good job of balancing wheels round here so well pleased) They are also general mechanics despite the name and have quoted me £90 labour for a cam belt change. Result!

Ok some of you have got your wheels done plenty cheaper, but for me, having a rocommend company do the job with all that convienence too was well worth it.

Any down sides?.. well if I'm nit picking..I can see they have put on quite a bit of weight on some of the wheels which makes me worry that the "new" refurbs may not be very straight, but of cause thay are not brand spankers so probably can expect it?

All in, I'm well pleased, well worth £220 for the satisfaction as it has lifted the appearence of the whole car, and would not be surprised if you could squeeze andother c.£220 out of future buyers of the car anyway. Not that I want to sell her now :D

Anyway gone on a bit... but have had a great service from Tyre Torque and Prestine. So get on with it, there is no longer a reason for any IS to run around without that bling that attracted us in the first place (as long as theres a Pristine agent in your area :P )

now I've done the wheels... maybe now some eibachs.. minus 30mm will look even better???...the bug starting to bite

Well done Pristine and Tyre Torque!

How are they looking a a year or so later? Interested to know, I gave up doing Diamond cut wheels because the finish failed too quickly

Cheers pxwheels

I'm sorry but everyone is allowed there opinion of a business if they have had personal experiences (this is not saying that i agree or disagree). A forum is used to swap opinions and experiences and from what i've seen in this post there hasnt been any excessive negative comments.

Also, i dont feel that using someone's name to try and be derogatory towards that person is the right way to go about making your point. If there is a serious issue between your self and an individual then sorting it out privately between the two of you would be the best thing.

I think the offer of offering a tour of your facilities is excellent and it would be good to see examples of your work.

Sorry if you have taken offence from any of my comments this was not the intention.

Absolutely, I don't have an issue with anyone commenting on my business, good bad or indifferent, what I do take exception to is someone telling absolute lies to divert customers from me to his friend who also has a wheel business.

Hello Guys,

I'm the guy who advertises exchange wheels on eBay,

I will stand by the quality of my work, and if any LOC mebers would like a tour of our facilites they are more than welcome to drop in any time.
